De La Salle Waterford

De La Salle Waterford “De La Salle College, Waterford, is an all-boys Catholic school.

De La Salle College, Waterford was founded in 1892 by the De La Salle Brothers and serves as a Catholic school for boys. The aim of De La Salle College is to develop an atmosphere of friendliness, discipline and co-operation where everyone can experience respect, encouragement and support. While every school is a community in which adults and young people live and work together, the Lasallian scho

ol is inspired by the vision of St. John Baptist De La Salle, that Gospel values must permeate the life of a Christian school in such a way that students internalise those values and reflect then in their behaviour. All who work in the College constantly strive to make De La Salle College a welcoming institution. Our behaviour management strategies and pastoral care structures are built on the principles of justice and fairness. We endeavour to fulfill our mission in partnership with parents/guardians, staff, students, trustees and the community.

⛷️🏂 TYs Taking on the Slopes… and Some “Safer” Sports! 🎿😂

Our TY students continue their Alpine adventures, mastering the art of skiing! ❄️But it’s not all high-speed wipeouts and après-ski—there’s also time to rest, relax, and dabble in some slightly more familiar sports and entertainment. 🎱🏓

From carving up the slopes to catching up on some well-earned downtime, they’re making the most of every moment! 😆🏔️

🏀 Heartbreak in Tallaght, but So Much to Be Proud Of! 💚

Our De La Salle College Waterford U19B squad left it all on the court last Friday at the National Basketball Arena, narrowly losing 48-49 to St. Clare's College, Cavan in a thriller. A tough way to finish, but what a fight from our lads! 👏🔥

Huge thanks to Ms McAuliffe for her incredible coaching and leadership. And a special shoutout to our sixth-years—Alistair Ranin, Tom Grant, Connor Flynn, Sebastian Obico, and Patrick Dermody—who played their final game for De La Salle. 🎓💙 You’ve given us some unforgettable moments, and we’re so grateful!

Heads held high, boys—you did us proud! 💪💛

🚀 Senior Coding Club in Action!

Today in Senior Coding Club, we had a fantastic time exploring the evolution of computers! 🖥️🔍 We carefully took apart a very old PC, examining its components and comparing them to those in modern machines. It was a hands-on lesson in how technology has advanced over the years. ⚡💡 Check out the photos of our curious coders in action! 📸😃

🇮🇹 TYs Have Landed in Andalo! ⛷️❄️

After a long journey and a very early start, our TYs and teachers have arrived safely in Andalo, Italy—and as you can see from the pictures, they’ve wasted no time settling in! 🏔️✨

With full bellies 🍕🥐 and plenty of energy, they’re already making shapes on the slopes—some graceful, some… well, let’s just say they’re getting there! 😆🎿 But every fall is followed by a laugh and a determined comeback. 💪❄️

The adventure is only beginning, and we can’t wait to see what’s next! Stay tuned—more pictures will follow as the week progresses! 📸🤩

📣 Munster Semi-Final here we come 📣

Congratulations to U17 Soccer team who put up a fierce battle against St John the Baptist Community School, Limerick!

This nail-biting match saw 2-2 score at full time. Superb goals from Seán Lyons-Mullan and Orion Cala set us up for extra-time. Bobby Keohan’s goal brought the score to 3-2 but the Limerick team kept us on our toes, scoring a goal in the final minutes of extra-time. Our 5-4 victory in penalties has landed us our place in the Munster Semi-Final. Well done to our penalty takers- Bobby Keohan, Harry Kavanagh, Orion Cala, Jeff Fanning and Daniel Doyle.

Mr. Power and Ms. Harrington can finally breathe again!

Thank you as always to our sponsor, Niall Harrington of Whitebox Ltd who is pictured below with some squad members.

Best of luck to our O Dowd Cup (White Cup) team who are playing their Munster A Semi-Final in Cappoquin today at 13.30. Come along & support the team.

Our Corn Ui Dhudha (formerly White Cup) team is back in action on Wednesday next, January 29th, as we take on Midleton CBS in the Munster A U15 hurling semi final. The venue has yet to be confirmed, but we will keep you updated. This promises to be a great match, so your support would be appreciated for this talented group of lads.

Unfortunately, yesterday just wasn't our day as we bowed out of the Harty Cup following defeat to a very strong Thurles CBS team. Our lads showed great spirit to go level in the 2nd half after a slow start, but it wasn't to be. Everyone in De La Salle College is very proud of the effort that these boys have put in this year, and we know that there are big things to come for many of these players. Well done to Thurles CBS on a fine performance yesterday, and best of luck in the final. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CqcvYRtWs/

A great send off for the team!

Some great photos from our Harty quarter final victory over CBC last Monday. The excitement is building for our semi-final, which is fixed for Wednedsay 22nd in Castlelyons with a 13.30 throw-in. Photos courtesy of Dan Linehan
