The community which St. Mary’s serves can be confident about its unrivalled dedication to the pursuit of excellence for each pupil in its care.

The Word “Legend”
True Legends are Gathering in Ballybofey… The word “Legend” is an often overused word in describing great sporting prowess or great GAA games and an official definition states “anyone or anything whose fame promises to be enduring”. The exploits of the youthful Clare Hurling team in winning the Liam McCarthy Cup on Saturday evening last, and in doing so beating a well fancied Cork side managed by the great Jimmy Barry Murphy, are already gaining legendary status. The fact that Cork only managed to lead both games for only 90 seconds is a testament to the Clare team but a word of warning….legends are not made in one sporting year !! The more mature readers will recall the fair haired Pat Spillane from the Templenoe Club in the Kingdom of Kerry, setting off on many a solo run from his own half back line and kicking score after score in All-Ireland Finals…I thought that he ran on the tips of his toes..!!!!…then again Legends can perform true feats of skill. True Legend…11 Munster Medals, 2 National Football Medals, 8 All-Ireland Medals and 9 All-Star Awards. Or Colm O Rourke gracefully weaving around flat-footed corner backs to score goals and points at ease, almost like a giant in slow motion. True Legend. 5 Leinster Medals, 3 National Football Legends, 2 All- Ireland Medals and 3 All-Star Awards. Peter Canavan struck fear into whole football teams when he got the ball within scoring distance and his deft touches when scoring goals would be the pride of any Premiership player on €150k a week.

Tuarascail Bhliantúil 2009 the Year of Celebration for Our One Hundred
Tuarascail Bhliantúil 2009 The year of celebration for our one hundred and twenty five years of commitment and service to our Country, has been widely acclaimed and supported with many outstanding events and occasions, to ensure that the input of many great people over this period of time who dedicated to the development of the Gaelic Athletic Association were recognised. History is important and we must always be aware of where we have come from. It can be motivating and enlightening to the current times. Today is about knowing where we are now based on what has gone before. We need both these elements to inspire us to build for the future. We have strategies in place to guide us towards our goal but strategies alone cannot be the driving force for a vibrant tomorrow. The things that motivate members, Clubs, Counties, Provinces and an expanding Association is that idealism of extended community pride based on the core values of the GAA. These are what will take us to our future. The world of today is vastly different from our founding times and the intervening period has thrown up many varied challenges to the GAA. We have been and must remain relevant to the times that we are in, based on the essential commitment to our aims and ideals. We have changed in so many ways during the past one and a quarter Centuries that our Founders would have hardly imagined how we would have developed even with the best vision of Dr. Croke. The Association has democratically remained true to our core values, despite the variable of the difficulty of the times, and this is important when we envisage our future.

Principal's Introduction Inspection Report Excerpts
PRINCIPAL’S INTRODUCTION St Mary’s is a place of breadth and brilliance and the academic year 2014-2015 was no different. We were watching with interest the innovations yielded by iPads and embedding further those things which enable our pupil voice to be heard, when we received the news that the school was to be inspected by ETI and the date Monday 23- Friday 27 February. With mixed emotions- having spent nine years as part of Inspection teams, I set about supporting and guiding staff. Initial dread soon subsided, and every member of our committed and talented school community set about the preparations that would ensure that those who came to see the daily practices in St Mary’s would be impressed. We set ourselves high goals, confident that as a staff who give our best because our valued parents and gifted and talented pupils deserve no less, that we would succeed. And succeed we did. It was a humbling and proud experience to hear the daily feedback on ETI’s findings. Before the final outcome was shared, I was confident that the school community would receive the highest accolade. And we did: Outstanding Leadership and Management; Outstanding Achievements and Standards; Outstanding Provision; Outstanding Overall Effectiveness…Simply Outstanding! The Inspection was only one part of this half of the academic year. So many other successes and achievements are recorded. We continued to foster links with our local community, our industrious PTA and our parents and guardians. Sadly, we must also say goodbye to some staff, such as Senior Teacher Mr Paul Campbell, Mr N McShane and Mrs S Fullerton, and members of our invaluable Board of Governors, such as Chairman Mr Paddy Bradley, Vice-Chair Monsignor O’Byrne, Ms Mary Diamond, Mr Seamus McNeill and Teacher Representative, Mrs Maeve Carr.

UCD and the Sigerson By Irial Glynn Irial Glynn | 1 UCD and the Sigerson Author: Irial Glynn Editor: Paul Rouse 2 | UCD & the Sigerson Sigerson Cup is an attempt to peep through the last 100 years and stir the memories of golden days for past participants and warriors.

Board of Governors' Annual Report
BOARD OF GOVERNORS’ ANNUAL REPORT A long established tradition of achievement, success, quality teaching and learning 2009/2010 FOREWORD The Board of Governors’ Report for 2009/2010 highlights, in considerable detail, the school’s continuing achievement in every aspect of its life and work. St Mary’s was described in ‘The Sunday Times’ (Autumn 2009) as ‘impressive’, ‘remarkable’, and offering a ‘culture of excellence and achievement’ and, as I reflect on these accolades, it is fitting to place them firmly in the context of our school motto: Gloria Deo Soli. These simple, powerful words confirm for us our motivation and purpose in all that we do in St Mary’s. The St Mary’s community is defined by ‘exemplary’ pupils (ETi, February 2008) and ‘supportive’ and ‘encouraging’ parents/guardians. They, in turn, would wish me to pay tribute to the staff of St Mary’s who are unrivalled in their dedication and loyalty to the school. Should you wish to discuss any issue arising from the contents of this report, please do not hesitate to contact me at the school (8.30 am- 5.00 pm) on or before 9 December 2010. __________________ D A Lambon Principal and Correspondent to the Board of Governors December 2010 CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION I am very pleased indeed to introduce the Board of Governors’ Annual Report for 2009/2010. It is, as always, a source of great pride and admiration for Governors to record the many achievements and successes of the school. The indefatigable efforts of students and staff and the generous support and encouragement of parents/guardians ensure an environment where success is achieved and valued.
