Congratulations to the Poetry students who have been selected as the incoming House Leaders for next academic year 2022-23.
House Leaders play an important role in the College, working in service of the school and their fellow students. There are ten Houses at Clongowes, and each House is made up of a cross-section of boys from every Year Group, under the leadership of their House Leaders.
As their first ‘official engagement’, this new group of House Leaders will be present to welcome our incoming Elements students in September and help these, our youngest students, in the role of ‘big brothers’.
Throughout the coming year, House Leaders will be offered the opportunity to develop their own leadership styles and skills, as they discover more about the principles of Ignatian leadership. They will lead the school as mentors for other students and empower younger students to develop and grow during their Clongowes journey.
Clongowes Houses are named after saints and well-known Jesuits: Arrupe, Kostka, Sullivan, Hopkins, Kenney, Claver, Collins, Gonzaga, Loyola and Xavier. Two or three House Leaders boys are assigned to lead each House.
Meet our newest House Leaders by name below. We wish them well for the coming year.
