When you’ve just delivered the greatest ‘I’m disappointed in you’ lecture of your teaching life.

“There are charms to secure happiness. If you believe that you are going to be lucky, you go about your business with a smile, you take disaster with a smile, you start afresh with a smile. And to do that is to be in the way of happiness.” ~A.A.Milne #SaturdayMotivation

When someone expresses a dissenting or outlying opinion -- be curious about what they see and know that you don't.

Thanks to all future Presentation Secondary School, Wexford students & their parents who came along to visit us, in our Hub Centre, for the Open Evening. We were delighted to see such interest & happy that our stickers proved to be very popular with everyone, #studentleadership

'No two trees - no two leaves - are ever exactly alike. No plant - no flower - ever perfectly symmetrical. Repetition, yet with a slight difference. Variety, yet with conformity. This is how we expect it. This is how we love it. This is beauty.' ~ C.R.Milne #nature
