an unbelievable finish to a pulsating game. Massive turning point was Mr Rooney’s goal line clearance. After months of coaching the “sweaty” goal, he goes and saves a certain one! ⚫️⚪️👏👏
We are delighted to announce that Mr.Joe McCann has been appointed as Principal of St. Patrick’s Grammar School. Joe has been part of the Red High family since 1992. As a school community we are excited and very proud to have you at the helm. Congratulations Joe
