I am sure that many of them were heartbroken at the realisation that the cause to which they had devoted their lives “ was in danger of failing because of an absence of vocations. In a tremendous act of faith and hope they decided to hand over the ownership of their almost 100 schools to a lay trust. They reposed faith in us and hoped we would continue the provision of education in accordance with the traditions of Blessed Edmund Rice. I will never forget the experience of Dublin Castle that day. Although sad, there was a tremendous energy and enthusiasm shown by all to ensure that the ideals of Edmund Rice would continue through the agency of this trust. I hope that the Brothers’ act of faith has been honoured and their hope realised by the work of the trust for the last 10 years. The Charter, so carefully drafted so as to ensure that the vision of Edmund Rice would be maintained, has been given effect to in all of our schools. I wish to express sincere thanks to the principals and teachers who have played such a vital role in ensuring the continuation of education in the Edmund Rice tradition.… 3 I also thank and pay tribute to the past and present directors of the trust who gave and give so generously of their time and expertise. The small but very dedicated executive staff have played a huge role in ensuring the success of the trust. Thanks to them. My fellow members of the trust have been no less generous in their commitment to ensuring its success. I am very grateful to them. The proof of the success of the trust is, of course, to be found in our students. They – in a world that is largely unsympathetic to the Edmund Rice ideals – have proved themselves to be enthusiastic ambassadors for those ideals. We are very proud of them.

Is deacair a chreidiúint go bhfuil deich mbliana curtha i gcrích ag Iontaobhas Scoileanna Éamonn Rís agus nach iontach an rud é go bhfuil an Iontaobhas agus a chuid scoileanna ag dul i láidre in aghaidh na bliana. Ten years have passed since that special day in Dublin Castle when “ the Edmund Rice Schools Trust was launched. What a generous and courageous step it was for the Christian Brothers to hand over the trustee- ship of nearly 100 schools to a new lay trust after over two hundred years of intimate and accumulated experience of patronage of their schools. The new patron had a lot to live up to but it was taking on the challenge emboldened with a fierce passion for the vision of Edmund Rice, for our schools, for the students and their communities. It has to be a source of great satisfaction that the vision of Edmund Rice as expressed in the Charter has been embedded in all our school communities in a real and life-giving way. Our principals and teachers have made a tremendous contribution in bringing to life the values of Edmund Rice and we owe such gratitude to parents all over the country who have expressed such confidence in Edmund Rice education. The most remarkable achievement has been the way our students – in a very changed world – have immersed themselves in the ethos of our schools and see in the values of the Charter guiding principles for living meaningful lives. Tá ard-mholadh tuillte go mór ag gach duine a raibh baint acu leis an leabrán seo a ullmhú agus tréaslaim go mór leo. May the spirit of Edmund inspire us all as we face the future in confidence.

Over 55% of ERST Primary schools are providing education and learning for children from disadvantaged communities or with specific education needs. 8 Our Students and our Schools are our Lifeblood There’s always something special about marking an anniversary.

As a Trust team we are here to do one thing – and that is to provide the framework that supports and facilitates this vibrant network and the teaching, learning, support and encouragement that goes on every day in our 96 school communities. We are also very aware that 10 years, on the scale of things, is a very short time indeed, particularly when we consider the two century legacy that precedes our establishment. 9 Blessed Edmund Rice, the extraordinary man who Marking any anniversary is also a great time to founded his first school in Waterford 216 years think about the future.

On the last day of July in the year 1893, a dozen comparatively unknown men met in a room in Dublin and founded a Society for the purpose of saving Irish as a living spoken language. That meeting was one of the great events in our his- tory, for it was the occasion of the founding of the Gaelic League. Inside a decade the movement for the revival of the Language1 had swept the country like a great fire, .filling the towns and villages, the schools and colleges with such a flame of en- thusiasm and inspiration that every alien force and agent in the country was shaken into a re- cognition of its power. Thus were laid the foundations of the great movement which pre- pared the way for that national uprising which has raised the Irish State into being and which has restored to the Irish people the government of their own land after a lapse of nearly a thousand years.

  • 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.
