An Education Tradition

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our school website. Whether you are a prospective parent or student or just interested in the breadth of activities and programmes (academic and otherwise) that make up our school, we hope that you will be able to find what you need here. There is a long tradition of education in Hospital dating back to the the 1890's and with our new state-of-the-art campus opened in 1999, we are proud to continue this tradition into the new millenium.

As well as information about the school, we have a number of resources for parents and students. These include a sample of the information sheets developed in the school to help parents e.g. tips for parent-teacher meetings. The students section includes a summary of our careers service as well as links to other useful online resources.

If you have any questions about the school or suggestions about how we can make this site better, please do not hesitate to contact us.

John the Baptist - Win Munster Senior Hurling Title Thu Mar 19th 2009 13:54:02

John the Baptist proved to be too strong for Glanmire CS in a highly entertaining final in Fermoy on Saturday 7th March, 2009. Hospital led the game from start to finish and at no time could Glanmire get their noses in front and this factor proved crucial in the end. In the opening half, Hospital, who were wind assisted, led at half-time, 0-6 to 0-3. David Murphy, Mark Deegan and Aaron Murphy were all on the mark and Glanmire struggled to cope in a number of key areas on the field. However, their full-back, Shane Corbett, could not be faulted and had a fine game at the edge of the square. Glanmire were also guilty of poor decision-making and opted to go for goals from close range frees when taking points would have been a better option. In the second half, Glanmire got off to an excellent start scoring a point within seconds of the throw-in. Scores were at a premium, but by the 45th minute, the sides were level. Hospital battled very hard for every ball and B Cleary, P Barron, P Ahern and P Martin were outstanding in defence. The crucial score came with 12 minutes to go when Aaron Murphy "hammered" in a 20 meter free. To their credit Glanmire came back and scored 2 more points, but with 2 minutes to go, a goal-keeping error by C Duggan resulted in Hospital full-forward, C McAuley scoring a decisive goal, sealing the title for John the Baptist. All-Ireland Semi-Final to be played on Saturday 21st March, 2009 in Ratoath, Co. Meath at 2.00 p.m. CHECK OUT THE PHOTO GALLERY FOR SOME ACTION SHOTS!!!
