We are forever in your debt Mr Harty. You have recognised the best in all of us and in so doing, enabled us to demonstrate to the world what can be achieved when you turn to face the sun. The warming rays can lead us to be courageous, dispel self doubt and stretch us bravely forward casting nothing but shadows of encouragement in our wake. From the children, parents, staff, Board of Management and all who have been blessed to share in your talents, sincerest thanks. We wish you joy as you embark on this new adventure. May it be filled with the brightest of days.
Many tributes have been paid this week, to a dear friend, exceptional colleague, compassionate educator and selfless servant to the community of Huntstown. Among the most common sentiments echoed by everyone who has been privileged to know Mr Harty, is 'true gentleman'. After thirty-five years of dedicated service to our school and our families, Mr Harty begins his retirement. We cannot be but heavy hearted to say farewell to someone who has treated us all with such kindness. This has been evinced in the warm and pleasant interactions he has shared with parents, children and staff. It is revealed through the listening ear that hears the heartbeat of the school community and responds with endless empathy and humanity to its steady beat. It is demonstrated by his unfailing commitment to all of the children in the school and in particular our children with special educational needs. Most importantly, this giant of our school, this titan in our community, has shown through deeds and words a wellspring of grace and decency.
