Patrick Cronin was a Whitefriars student and was in Avila House here at Whitefriars. Avila House has proudly had the Pat Cronin Foundation as its House Charity for a number of years now.

On Friday 19 July, we had our 2024 Avila Feast day which included a Mass and lunch afterwards. Robyn (Pat’s mum) came to the Mass and Lunch.

The picture below includes Avila House Vice Captain Riley Jones, Avila House Captain Matt Deane, Robyn Cronin (Pat’s mum) and myself Tom Stafford House Leader of Avila House.

If you look closely at the photo, the Foundations’ Owl is hanging on the entrance to the Avila House Pastoral Rooms. Robyn presented us the Owl last year and we decided to put it an area of the school Pat was very present in. He will always be remembered at Whitefriars.
