A wonderful Virtual School Assembly and Prize Giving took place via Zoom on Sunday 24 May to mark the end of the 2019-20 academic year. The event took the place of the usual Sports Day activities, made impossible this year by the Covid-19 lockdown. Nevertheless, the usual family picnics took place in the homes of Glenstal students all around the world, with photos shared during the Assembly, and the announcement of prizewinners was interspersed with a wonderful variety of home-recorded student musical performances.
Particularly warm congratulations to Donagh Hyland, who was awarded the Abbot of Maredsous Cup; and to Tom Rooney and Ted Collins, who were announced as next year’s School Captain and Vice-Captain.
Congratulations to all of our students for the outstanding way in which they have dealt with this unprecedented period of lockdown. Keep safe and well during the summer holidays. colombia.co We look forward to seeing everybody in September.
