On Monday, 21st October, our Student Council took part in a special workshop as part of the Letters of Solidarity Campaign, in collaboration with Sanctuary Runners — a running club based here in Tallaght and across Ireland that promotes inclusion, friendship, and community through sport.
During the session, students wrote heartfelt letters to people living in Direct Provision and temporary accommodation, sending them messages of encouragement and good luck ahead of the upcoming Dublin Marathon.
The day was filled with reflection, empathy, and connection — and we are so proud of our students for the kindness and positivity they showed throughout the event.
We were also delighted to have RTÉ join us to film part of the workshop! The feature was aired yesterday on RTÉ2. You can watch it back anytime on the RTÉ Player (also linked on Instagram here)
A huge thank you to Ms. Whelan and Ms. O’Callaghan for facilitating this wonderful opportunity and supporting our students in sharing messages of solidarity and hope.
