Ciara GlynnPrevious Student

Mrs Sugrue was my Home Economics and Recource teacher for 3/4 years in St. Michael’s. She had a heart of gold and really did put a lot of effort and time into her students.

She will be missed by many previous and present staff and students at St. Michael’s School, she had a big impact on us.

Gone, but never forgotten. May she rest in Peace
