A huge congratulations to the first year A basketball team. They bounced back after yesterday’s disappointment in the final to beat King’s Hospital 24-12. This qualifies them to represent Dublin in the All-Ireland championships, the first time Maryfield has gotten that far. Well done girls!

Well done to the u14 badminton team who did so well at the All Ireland championships today, coming third behind Ulster and Munster. They won four of their matches and had a great time! Go Meerkats! Well done and thank you to Trisha Fernandes from 1K for making the banner!

Fourth year students took part in the annual Emmanuel concert in the Helix on Wednesday. Emmanuel is a celebration of liturgical music and it is organised by the Archdiocese of Dublin. Schools all over Dublin take part in the Emmanuel concert.

The fourth years represented Maryfield well by singing their hearts out and getting involved in all the activities. It was a spiritual day where students got a chance to pray, reflect and sing. Two students sang beautiful solo pieces and shone on the main stage.
