Celebrating Pupil Creativity

28th Aug 2025

Over the summer holidays, one of our talented Primary 6 pupils, Cillian, created a very special piece of art. Inspired by his family, he painted a portrait of his younger brother, Lorcán. The artwork beautifully captures both likeness and personality, showing great care, skill and attention to detail.

We are delighted to share that Cillian’s painting has been shortlisted in the National Gallery of Ireland’s Young Portrait Competition 2025. This is a fantastic achievement, and we are extremely proud of his creativity and dedication. We wish him the very best of luck in the competition!
