The Jes Past Pupils’ Union is getting ready to launch its new website at a get-together for all past pupils and their partners next weekend.
The get-together, which takes place in the Harbour Hotel on Saturday November 23, will see former Jes pupils from down through the years get together to enjoy a night of entertainment and celebration.
The event will start at 8.30pm and includes a buffet dinner followed by live entertainment and a late bar.
The following day, Sunday November 24, will see the annual celebration of Mass for deceased past pupils and members of the Jesuit community at the Jesuit Church on Sea Road. The Mass, which starts at 11am, will be celebrated by former Jes principal Fr Paddy Greene SJ.
The Jes Past Pupils' Union works to bring former students of both Scoil Iognáid and Coláiste Iognáid together to reconnect and celebrate their shared educational heritage. The union's website will feature a password-protected database which past pupils can use to reconnect with former classmates and network with the Jes community around the world.
Tickets for the social night on November 23 cost €30 and are available from Jes PPU committee members Una Sinnott (087 2798525 ), Liam Ferrie (086 3067611 ), or MacDara Hosty (086 2512762 ). For further details see www.facebook.com/jescolaisteiognaid ppu or tweet @jesheads
