Welcome to the class of 2024

Today, we welcomed our new Year 8 students, along with their families, to the Abbey community. The sun shone on our annual Garden Party and all is good.

Breffini, Donard, Iveagh, Oriel and Slemish

What a start for the next generation of Abbey men. A great day full of fun activities whilst getting to know their new form class; Breffini, Donard, Iveagh, Oriel and Slemish.

Day 2 is tomorrow, a very special day with our new recruits in full Abbey uniform accompanied by their parents/caregivers. See you all at 9:30am. This session will conclude at 11am with our annual Garden Party.

Welcome to the Abbey CBGS! We know starting post primary can be both exciting and a little nerve-wracking, but remember that you’re not alone on this journey. You’re joining a community that is here to support you, cheer you on, and help you grow.

At Abbey CBGS, you’ll discover new passions, make lasting friendships, and create memories that will stay with you forever. It’s okay to feel a bit uncertain at first, but know that each of us has been where you are now, and we’re here to help you find your way.

Remember, the Abbey is not just a place to learn—it’s a place where you can truly be yourself. So take a deep breath, step forward with confidence, and know that you’re already a valued part of our school family. We can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish over the next 7 years.

To the boys coming on their own, we see you and we’re so glad you chose us! Just remember, your best friend will be there waiting on you.
