The school has an active Parent Association which promotes the well being of the school. The activities of the Parent Association provide an organised forum through which parents can make a positive contribution to their children’s education.
The Parent Association plays an important part in the life of the school and supports the school in every way. All parents are encouraged to become involved in the Parent Association and to support the activities and projects that are a feature of our school.
The new committee of the Parent Association is elected at the Annual General Meeting of the Parent Association which is held in September/October. The Parent Association is affiliated to the National Parents Council. Each year the AGM of the Parent Association elects officers. These may be contacted by letter through the School Office or you may email the Parent Association here: pa@cashelbns.ie

The Parent Association, in consultation with the Principal, organises various fundraising activities throughout the year.
The Parent Association review school policies and can suggest changes and amendments.
The Parent Association organises various events throughout the year for example Winter Wonderland, table quiz and provide Christmas Annuals to each boy in the school every year.
