KEEP SAFE - KEEP OTHERS SAFE

Limited Places available for First Year in 2020

Local schools (in the Howth Deanery) have now applied through the Deanery form. However, each year there are a limited number of places for direct application to the school. Anyone may apply directly. The number of places is very limited, as Ardscoil La Salle makes a feature of small classes and an overall number which allows every student to know every other student. These 'extra' places are expected to be taken up very quickly. If you are interested please phone 01 848 0055 or email secretary@ardscoillasalle.ie .

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year from Us All

Focus on Achievement - First Year Christmas Party

Our 1st years had a great last day! To celebrate the end of a successful first term and the beginning of the Christmas holidays, they got busy making pizzas for their Pizza Party. Between the gourmet pizzas and the tins of sweets, our 1st years started off Christmas with a bang!

Focus on Community - Ardscoil La Salle Christmas Carol Service

Here at Ardscoil La Salle, our annual Christmas Carol Service was a massive success. We could not have done it without our diligent, hardworking staff and of course, our exceptional 'Della Voices' who are once again bringing Christmas cheer wherever they sing! We would like to extend our thanks to the students of St. Benedicts Primary School for joining us during the morning service- we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! We would also like to extend a huge thank you to 73rd Raheny Scout Group for supplying us with our Christmas tree, which certainly lit up the room and helped create a wonderful atmosphere during our Carol Service. Merry Christmas to all from Ardscoil La Salle.

Focus on The Arts - TY Panto Update!

The props for the Ardscoil La Salle Panto 'Sleeping Cutie' are well underway. Our TYs are a dedicated and hard- working bunch! The Panto will be running for two nights only, the 27th & 28th of January- so remember to save the date and spread the word!! We look forward to seeing you there.
