On Friday the 19th of October, Beatrice Vaughan, Rachel O Connell, Mia Egan, Ashleigh Mc Namara, Ciara Morris and Sinead Vaughan tacked up and represented St Joseph's in a thrilling showjumping competition in Clare Equestrian centre.

It was a win win situation for our two teams as for the first time the competition was held on a school Day...other years Miss Moran and her troop headed to the showgrounds on Sundays, but this change of venue and day meant that the course was more difficult and there were ALOT more schools from all over Munster.

We had a great start with a clear round from Beatrice on Black Jack, but were unfortunate with Mia on Pickles and Rachel on Tyro picking up four faults.

Team two also had a great start with Sinead riding clear on Tyro, Ashleigh riding clear on Polo but disaster struck when Taz threw Ciara. Thankfully she was unhurt :)

Individual rounds went better with four rosettes coming home to Tulla, and only a time difference costing first place.

It was an exhilarating day...

Concert Sláinte an Chláir

On October 4th, St Joseph’s Secondary School in Tulla hosted an all-star line-up of musicians, singers and dancers for a fundraising concert in aid of Sláinte an Chláir.

The programme was brainchild of the LCA class and their music teacher Aisling Behan. This student-organised concert brought together accomplished artists such as All-Ireland award winning musicians Sinéad Mulqueen and Dáire Mulhern along with talented students Aisling Clarke, Dearbhla Creaven, Daragh Leamy, Éabha McInerney, and the LCA music group.

The mix of student and professional talent taking part led to lively and heart-warming performances for a very worthy cause.

NB - Info for Viewing Exam Scripts

Details: Written by Lorraine McCarthy; Last Updated: 15 August 2018; Created: 15 August 2018; Hits: 3142

HUGE CHANGES AHEAD FOR VIEWING OF LEAVING CERT SCRIPTS

Firstly, due to changes in Data Protection Regulations, students are now allowed to bring in a mobile phone, tablet or digital camera for the purpose of copying their own script/s.

Secondly, following a decision of the European Court of Justice last December, you, the student have a legal right to a copy of the personal data which the SEC holds about you, in this case, your Leaving Certificate scripts. You can now request a copy of your examinations scripts. These requests will take at least 90 days to process so this is NOT the route to take if you are thinking of making an appeal as the closing date for appeals is September 5th.

Also, you will now be able to make a data access request for the recording of your oral exam. In this case, you will be provided with the recording of your own responses, not the questions that you were asked as this is not your personal data.

Finally, you can make a data access request to have the marks of practicals and oral tests provided to you. This information is. It provided at the viewing of scripts and is not routinely released.

The student, and only the student, can access their papers. While one other person can accompany you to view your papers, it isn’t possible for your school, your parent, your friend or any third party to view and copy your scripts on your behalf. As has been the case in previous years, the dates for the viewing of the scripts coincides with the Electric Picnic. So - no copies of exams for any picnic peeps!!

Hopefully, this has helped you understand the changes ahead.

It is important to remember that this new system will add significantly to the workload of schools and the SEC. Any data access request will take time for the SEC to process. It is important that our right to information is considered a privilege.
