Dear Parents/Carers,

I wish to inform you that we will be welcoming our newly appointed principal, Mr. Darragh. Tighe, to our fantastic school community.

We are delighted for the new opportunities and leadership which he will bring to our school, and as a staff we look forward to meeting him in person over the coming days.

More details will follow as to when Mr. Darragh Tighe will officially take over his new role and duties, and I know that he has expressed how happy he is to be part of our St. Joseph’s P.S. Bessbrook.

Kind regards,

Mrs. Roisin Ward,

Chairperson

Gearty worked for many, many years in St Joseph’s PS and lots of our staff and past pupils will have fond memories of her. We extend our deepest sympathies to her husband John, daughters Kathy and Tracey, her son Joe, her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, her niece Mrs Siobhan Bellew (P3) and her entire family circle. St Joseph, pray for her.

Our football teams took part in our first blitz of the year this morning. The girls and boys displayed some fabulous football and team work during every match. A huge thank you to Carrickcruppen GAA for the use of their facilities and it was great to see a past pupil, Christian Cunningham, helping with the refereeing. A very sunny and successful morning for our footballers. Thanks to all our staff including Mrs Smith, Mrs Patton, Mrs Hadden, Miss Fearon and Mr Traynor for all their organisation and coaching. Maith sibh!
