Â鶹¶ÌÊÓƵ´«Ã½ History

St Patrick’s Â鶹¶ÌÊÓƵ´«Ã½ has a long and proud history. The Archives are an important record of the existence and past achievements of our Â鶹¶ÌÊÓƵ´«Ã½.

Archives can help to maintain a sense of belonging, stability, eternal values and continuity in our lives.

The Archives collection includes both paper documents and objects that relate to the history of St Patrick’s Â鶹¶ÌÊÓƵ´«Ã½. These include uniforms, school magazines, a large photographic collection, trophies, books, badges and other memorabilia.
