COLÁISTE BHRÍDE NEWSLETTER WINTER EDITION
As we enter the third year of our Þve-year Erasmus+ accreditation, we look back on an exceptional
2024/2025 school year. Nearly two hundred students beneÞtted from the opportunity to travel to
partner schools across the European Education Area so far this year, taking part in rich cultural,
educational and collaborative experiences.
Throughout the term, we were also delighted to host visiting delegations from France, Germany and
Italy, further strengthening our international partnerships and deepening cross-cultural understanding
within the school community. In line with the accreditation’s professional development goals, staff were
offered the chance to participate in training courses in their own time. Twenty-Þve members of staff
availed of these opportunities, enhancing their skills and contributing to the continued growth of
teaching and learning within the school.
