Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015
Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015 In February 1916 Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) circularised the principal schools in Ireland regarding the advisability of holding Schoolboys’ Championships. At the IAAA’s Annual General Meeting held on Monday 3rd April, 1916 in Wynne’s Hotel, Dublin, the Hon. Secretary, H.M. Finlay, referred to the falling off in the number of affiliated clubs due to the number of athletes serving in World War I and the need for efforts to keep the sport alive. Based on responses received from schools, the suggestion to hold Irish Schoolboys’ Championships in May was favourably considered by the AGM and the Race Committee of the IAAA was empowered to implement this project. Within a week a provisional programme for the inaugural athletics meeting to be held at Lansdowne Road on Saturday 20th May, 1916 had been published in newspapers, with 7 events and a relay for Senior and 4 events and a relay for Junior Boys. However, the championships were postponed "due to the rebellion" and were rescheduled to Saturday 23rd September, 1916, at Lansdowne Road. In order not to disappoint pupils who were eligible for the championships on the original date of the meeting, the Race Committee of the IAAA decided that “a bona fide schoolboy is one who has attended at least two classes daily at a recognised primary or secondary school for three months previous to 20 th May, except in case of sickness, and who was not attending any office or business”. The inaugural championships took place in ‘quite fine’ weather.

Easter 2014 Newsletter
BlackrockNewsletterEaster2014 11/04/2014 10:24 Page 1 Blackrock College Newsletter Special points of interest: Easter 2014 ● Boarding School Dear Parents One year in office, Pope Francis has made a huge impact on the world stage: 10 million followers on Twitter; most referenced on Facebook; Time Magazine ‘Person of the Year 2013’ and Fortune Magazine’s ‘World’s Greatest Leader’ ● Seachtain na Gaeilge (April 2014) – “a Leader’s job is to define reality and give hope”. In the words of Nancy Gibbs, the Managing Editor of Time “he has not changed the words, but he’s changed the music”. ● Pastoral Care Programme The words remain the same. The Christian message is 2,000 years old. Easter is more than the renewal of a historical event. It is the cornerstone of our faith. It is a reminder that even in death, we will rise again. No matter what the circumstances, the setback, the challenge, we can overcome it and through Christ, live a life of victory. ● Commerce & Economics What is victory? Is it a Cup Double? An All-Ireland Table Tennis Title? A race on the Liffey? Choral performances? These, of course, are welcome, bring much satisfaction but real victory is in caring for others, in simple acts of kindness, every ‘please’ and ‘thank you’, in holding a door, in telling the truth. ● Guidance and Counselling Victory is in restoring relationships. It is in forgiveness. At the Catholic World Youth Day, Pope Francis reminded the 3m Pilgrims,“He has transformed the Cross from being an instrument of hate, defeat and death to ● Science Department being a sign of love, victory, triumph and life”.

Autumn 2016 Newsletter
BLACKROCK COLLEGE NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2016 Dear Parents, What defines our College Community? It is a challenging question, one that has been given much thought as we prepared the way for our new strategic plan “Building on Tradition, 2016-21”. (Available from Reception if you do not have a copy already). What is the Blackrock of my and my son’s experience? When and where is Blackrock at its best? Blackrock at its best? – There are so many manifestations of this. The Second Year Family Mass, on Mission Sunday, 23rd October was one such occasion. The College Chapel was packed to the gills in celebration of who we are. ‘Everyone is a Missionary’ proclaimed the leaflet as Fr O’Brolchain, in his own inimitable style, told the assembled that “we are all sons and daughters of God” he urged all of us “to be loving people”. Of course, he added “it is not easy, but then what, that is worthwhile, is?” The spirit in the Chapel that Sunday morning defines us. If only we could bottle it and drink from it when we are confused or disappointed or frustrated with our lot. It was also apparent in the Pool Arena at the Swimming Gala the previous Thursday. Two hundred students, staff members and parents enjoyed Inter-House rivalry as well as competitive swimming. Wow – What an atmosphere! It is evident in the newly established ‘Thursday Tunes’, an occasion each Thursday Lunchtime for staff and students to sing along, to play or listen to music, to be part of a community, to celebrate and appreciate the talents around us.
