GCC Parents Update Friday 10 November 2023

Dear GCC Parents, Guardians & Students,

GCC Annual Mass of Remembrance

Our annual GCC Mass of Remembrance took place on Friday afternoon after school. We would like to thank all our staff, students, parents and other members of our school community who joined us at the service. Thank you to our Chaplain Ms Marie McInerney for all her work in organising this celebration. As always, we would like to acknowledge our wonderful students who contributed to the mass with readings, music and prayers of the faithful. Special mention also to Ms Ann Mannix who coordinated and accompanied our musicians and singers. This is always such an important event in our school calendar and provides comfort and hope to those in our school community whose loved ones have passed away.

GCC Stand Up Week November 2023

We would like to thank our GCC Misneach committee for their work this week in celebrating LGBTQ+ identities and fostering a culture of inclusion and respect in our school. This support for diversity in our school community will continue throughout the school year.
