Rugby
Children in all classes have enjoyed rugby skills sessions this year with Kenneth from Munster rugby. The children learned how to pass, catch and run with the rugby ball and how to score tries. We had fun playing matches against each other and combining classes for Tag rugby matches.
Equine Education Programme
We are delighted to once again be working with the Equine Education Programme. Girls and boys in the senior end of the school are involved in this project. The children were brought to RACE in Kildare to learn about the life of a Jockey and the dedication and commitment that goes into the sport of horse riding.
Each week the children involved learn how to take care of horses and their tack. The children are learning how to ride a horse.
Thanks to Catherine from the Equine Programme and Clare Equestrian Centre for facilitating children each week.
Soccer
With the good weather returning the boys and girls are enjoying playing some friendly matches against our friends in Le Chéile and Corpus Christi National Schools.
Huge thanks to Star Rovers and St. Marys RFC for allowing us to use their astro turf pitches.
We look forward to playing some more matches and attending upcoming competitions.
Recently, our boys and girls in fifth and sixth class took part in the Primary 5 a Side competition in Seanchoill. There were some excellent performances from all on the day
