The Department of Education and Skills is proposing to open a new post primary school in the Mulhuddart area. Would you like this to be a Le Chéile school?

There are no Catholic Secondary Schools in the area and Le Cheile would like to make this option available to parents.

 "Catholic education takes places in a complex and mixed cultural landscape. Our task is to engage in the kind of cultural discernment that seeks to cooperate with and reinforce the more positive aspects of our culture (for example, the sense that,  despite the other cultural pressures mentioned, education is a matter of the whole person, body, mind, imagination, feelings and so on and not just a narrowly focussed technical education, and that it can lead to what is true beautiful and good). When one falls in love all cultural predeterminations are relativised, everything becomes possible. God in Jesus has fallen in love with us, loves each of our stundents andinvites a response... It is the enormous privilege of the Catholic school - even when individual staff members have their own struggles with faith - to have at the centre of its mission the integral development of each student, to the point where they may glimpse this invitation of love from God and be enabled to make a free response."         

(Fr Gerry O Hanlon SJ  -  Le Chéile Conference 2012)
