Congratulations to the our Senior Boys, who won their football final in Croke Park on October 22nd. It was a fantastic match, the boys played their hearts out. The support from the pupils was amazing and we were so happy when the final whistle went. We have been so busy this term that we almost forgot to give a little update on our recent activities. Take a look at our photos and you will see the different activities that we have enjoyed. In February, we celebrated Friendship Week by working in groups to design posters about being friendly. We also made an extra special effort to be kind and friendly. Children that showed great friendship skills each day won a certificate and a prize. We also used our Art lessons to  celebrate St Brigid’s Day and Valentine’s Day. 
We had fantastic fun on our visit to Causey Farm this year. The highlights was jumping in the bog (as always!) and the beautiful little puppies.
Well done to the Senior Boys Hurling team who took part in the Hurling final in Croke Park today. They gave it their all in the match but unfortunately we did not get the win we all wanted. Thanks to the boys, Mr Moore and Mr. De Paor who all put in so much hard work during the year to get us to the final. Â Well done to all the great supporters who cheered the boys on in Croker and welcomed them home with a fitting guard of honour for our team.
