Annual Open Day - 2016
We were delighted to welcome so many prospective 1st Year students and their families to St Augustine’s on Saturday last to our annual Open Day. Following a very informative welcoming address from Príomhoide Ailbhe Ní Neachtain the visitors were divided into groups and given a tour of the wonderful facilities that we have here at The Friary.
Many thanks to all the staff and students who gave so freely of their time to showcase our college to our visitors. Many thanks too to Mrs Babs Kiely and her staff who served up the usual tea and coffee to our guests. We look forward to welcoming the 1st Year Class of 2017 in September.
