Year Book and Cogar

A yearbook is published at the end of each year written by the 6th years only. The book is a compilation of memories, funny stories and photographs that the Leaving Cert class have gathered over their 5 years in school. The 6th years use the book to pull together their stories, autographs and memories from teachers so they have a valuable recollection of their school lives for later years.

Cogar is the school magazine which is published bi-annually (Christmas and summer). The fifth years take ownership of the magazine each year. The articles are gathered from all the school community and budding writers are encouraged to get involved. The students co-ordinate, print and publish the magazine as well acting as photographers over the year.
