Congratulations to the 2026 DCS School Bank team on the launch of their highly successful school bank. With the support of @RM_Heffernan and Alan O'Hare, from @bankofireland the initiative was a fantastic occasion.

A massive thank you to local artist Kevin O’Brien who worked with some of our TY students to create this mural featuring past pupil Adam Idah ahead of a big day for the boys in the green! The second mural shows the proud soccer tradition at DCS & features some past kits worn!

Well done to the TY Enterprise business Douglas Decorations who proudly represented DCS at the Regional Final of the Schools Enterprise Programme in UCC recently. A special thanks to the superb Student Enterprise Programme run by the local LEO for facilitating this programme.

Last week the team travelled to Castletownbere & battled through testing conditions to secure an impressive 3-1 victory. Subsequently they faced a strong CSN side and showed great determination and resilience to earn a well-deserved draw. Well done to all our players!

Three of our Transition Year students, Diyar Muhsinoglu, Dáithaí O'Brien-Jackson and Nicholas Hari, proudly represented our school at the launch of Global Money Week 2026 in Croke Park recently. Well done to everyone involved in this fantastic initiative! #GMW

@LillianBarry80 @JohnnyBurke2 @FOBRacing @CoolmoreNH @Tattersalls_ie Yee'r on a role... Long may it continue for @LillianBarry80

@JohnnyBurke2 showing perseverance pays off on Mahler Moon!! Congratulations @FOBRacing & his owner Mrs Pink and all connections. We bred and sold the @CoolmoreNH son of Mahler @Tattersalls_ie as a foal #rathbritt

Our school choir was delighted to be invited to perform for the residents and staff of Maryborough Nursing Home. This intergenerational visit was both enjoyable & heartwarming for everyone involved. We would like to sincerely thank the staff for their warm welcome & hospitality!

@LillianBarry80 @CheltenhamRaces @coolmorestud @jimmyfyffe @DSkeltonRacing Congratulations to one and all. What an achievement... Hard work does pay off

What a thrill to see a Rathbritt Stud graduate cruise up the hill @CheltenhamRaces Bred by Padraig Barry the son of @coolmorestud Westerner was super impressive. Congratulations to @jimmyfyffe @DSkeltonRacing and all of his connections 🥂🥂🥳🥳

Congratulations to our 1st year Gaelic Football team who won a county semi-final against Carrigtwohill Community College. Both teams represented their schools well. The final will be in the coming weeks!

‘Seachtain na Gaeilge’ is in full swing in DCS. We are encouraging the entire school community to use their ‘cúpla focal’ no matter how big or small. Our slogan for this year is ‘Is fearr Gaeilge bhriste ná Béarla cliste’. We will be posting a ‘Frása an lae’ every day. 🇮🇪

@tajraasi A good first and 3rd in a couple of weeks is a good start. Another saying ' A good start is....' I suspect she's worth a multiple of what they paid for her now...

@PaBarry9 As my buddy said, one swallow doesn't etc. I'm not sure what she beat there 2day, majority of the competitors are from aging sires. Accordion on the damline should help here & I wouldn't turn down 15k a store & but she made 1500 as a foal which goes back to my original tweet.

@John1986ire @michaellooby2 Have a filly for the store sales by him. I hope he keeps on the upward trajectory. He is a beautiful looking horse himself.

@michaellooby2 Loved him in Charlie’s, lovely temperament of a horse too! Hope he does well

First winner for Old Persian today,early signs seem good for him

@michaellooby2 Very very impressive. 1st and a 3rd in two weeks. Mighty start...

Congratulations to 5th Year student Krish Gopal for his outstanding performance in the semi-final of the UCC Philosophical Society Schools Competition. While the result did not go his way on this occasion, we are extremely proud of him and his achievements to date. 👏🏻

To add to the European crown that he won in November 1st year student Elias Elsiah won an Irish Brazilian Jiu Jitsu title earlier this month. An outstanding achievement and a bright future ahead for the DCS student. 👏🏻

Best of luck to Krish Gopal who competes this evening in the semi-finals of the Munster Schools UCC Philosophical Society Debating Competition. While representing DCS Krish has delivered outstanding performances as he overcame competition from schools from Kerry to Tipperary!

@tajraasi @GingerJoeRacing Has not won inside the rails... bred only a mile away

@tajraasi @GingerJoeRacing Not sure which full sibling is 9/19...

👑 Queen Maeve makes her debut for Dan Skelton tomorrow at Hereford. It’s a notable runner too as she’s owned by John Magnier, another major owner placing faith in the Skelton yard. 🤞Hopefully she’s the first of many.
