Alumni Annual Dinner held in HYC on Saturday, 8th November 2025

November 13, 2025

Nearly 100 former pupils of the school met up last Saturday night for the Alumni Annual Dinner 2025.  Howth Yacht Club was the venue, and past pupils were treated to a welcome drink before sitting down for a three-course dinner in hte lovely surroundings of the Asgard Room. 

Past pupils from the 1960’s and 1970s took up three tables, while groups from the classes of 1988, 1989 and 1996 had a table each.  There was a great turnout from the Class of 1990 group with three tables purely from this year!

Speeches from Head of School Ronan Walsh and from Alumni Coordinator Eoin Scott set just the right tone, and the Class of 1990 remembered Michael Righton Claffey (a former member of staff) who passed away earlier this year.  Emlyn Jones gave a short discourse, supported by pictures, connecting Michael with various activities and outings he was involved with while at the school.

A really lovely evening went on into the wee small hours.  The next Alumni Dinner will be held on Saturday, 14th November 2026 and more details will be made available nearer to that date.
