Dear Past Pupils of Presentation College,
It is my pleasure and honour to hold the position of President of the Presentation College Union for 2026/2027. As I look forward to my year, I am deeply grateful to inherit the Presentation College Union in such good stead from the safe hands of previous Presidents, not least immediate Past Presidents, Neil O’Donovan and Joey Sheahan.
The PPU Committee is dedicated to fostering a strong sense of community, engagement and involvement among past pupils of PBC, driving participation in the events, activities and growth of the Union. I thank the members of the Committee for giving their time so generously.
To the teachers, coaches and staff of Presentation College, thank you for everything you do and the support you continue to show the PPU. I am looking forward to further building on the close relationship with David Barry and his leadership team, Aelin O’Donoghue and Enda O’Regan.
As President, my goals for the coming year are simple:
Strengthen our Network: Making it easier for past pupils to support one another professionally and socially.
Celebrate our Heritage: Honoring the traditions that make the Presentation Brothers’ education unique.
Support the College: Ensuring we remain a pillar of support for the current students and staff.
As the 150th anniversary of the College approaches in 2028, the Union is delighted to support the College, Principal Mr. David Barry, Board of Management and Trustees with an exciting list of events and projects in the coming years.
I encourage you to explore the site, update your contact details, and join us at our next gathering. The strength of the Union is, and always has been, its members.
I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible over the next twelve months.
Warm regards,
Paul McNamara (Class of 1998)
President, Presentation College Union
