Our musicians contribute greatly to the Catholic ethos of our school and are very involved in all celebrations and school events. Throwback to September, when we had our first full school Mass since Covid restrictions. On that day we celebrated both Newcestown and Ballinspittle Comhaltas on their wonderful achievements in the All Ireland Fleadh, with a special presentation from Ms. Magner, Head of the Music Department, to the students. Our musicians contribute greatly to the Catholic ethos of our school. Congratulations to Newcestown Comhaltas who have just been announced as the hosts for this year’s Cork Fleadh which be held in Bandon in May.
