November 2018 – We had an Active School Flag Assembly to introduce our Active School Committee to everyone. Our Active Agents explained the Active School Flag process to everyone. Lucy got everyone up and active doing jumping jacks and star jumps – well done Lucy!
As part of our Active School Flag process, we invited a coach from our local GAA Club, St. Naul’s, to come along and provide coaching in gaelic football for all classes. As you can see from the photographs, the children had lots of fun while learning new skills. Thank you Donie!
The coach from our local Golf Club in Murvagh came to the school to teach some golfing skills to the children from 3rd-6th Classes. They learned how to hold the golf club, the correct stance and how to hit a ball! Great fun had by all. Thanks to Leslie for coming in.
In January the pupils took part in a poster competition to design a character and motto to represent the Active School Project we are undertaking. Well done to our winner Lucy, who designed ‘Gary Grape’ and came up with the winning school motto – ‘Keep Fit At Least A Bit!’
The children took part in the cross country county finals. We had lots of medal winners on the day and all the children had great fun.
Our boys team competed in the southern final of the Cumann na mBunscol indoor football competition today. The boys played some great football and came second on the day. Well done boys!
