Senior Room Bake Sale
Senior Room Bake Sale

The pupils of 5th & 6th Classes were learning about business and decided to hold a bake sale. They advertised in the school and most of the children baked some goodies which they would then sell at the bake sale. It was a huge success with plenty of eager customers queuing up to buy the stock! When the sale was over, the ‘company’ had to pay back their suppliers (the parents and guardians!) and any profit made will be used for pupil benefits.

Our U11 girls Indoor Football Team competed in the County Indoor Football final blitz in Burnfoot on Monday 12th December. The girls qualified for this by winning the Southern Division and competed against five other regional winners on the day. The girls defeated Glengad and Fintown to progress to the County Final against Scoil Iosagaín Buncrana, where they were defeated by the smallest of margins 1-08 to 1-07. As this competition was open to all schools in Donegal it was a great achievement as the girls were competing against much larger schools. 48 schools took part in the competition so well done to our girls on a great achievement!
