2012 – The Centenary of the Past Pupils’ Union

To celebrate 100 years of the PPU in 2012 we are planning a Book of Memories which will be edited by Valerie Cox, a former President of the Muckross Past Pupils’ Union and the founder of the Muckross Mail.   She is working with other past pupils including Patricia O’Reilly, Helen Litton, Brenda Moore-McCann, all published authors in their own right, to produce the centenary book.

 If you have any memories and stories you would like to share or have any memorabilia or photos which could be included in the book, please contact Valerie Cox at 087-685 8406 or email muckrossppu@ireland.com . We are also anxious to contact our oldest past pupils – maybe you know someone who left school in the forties or fifties? We will be grateful for any information you can provide.

There is also the question of finance.  We are considering sponsorship and so we would love to hear from you if you know someone who would like to be immortalised in this fashion.  We expect this book to be available for some years to come and to become a treasured possession, an heirloom even, for the girls – and even some boys -who attended school in Muckross.  If you can think of a suitable sponsor – please put us in touch!

 We want to celebrate this major anniversary. This is YOUR union, so if you have any ideas about how we can mark our centenary please contact any member of the committee
