Throughout September, the girls from 3rd to 6th Class trained together in preparation for the Tipperary Cross Country Championships. Their commitment and hard work were truly rewarded when a record 75 pupils — boys and girls — were selected to represent our school at the event in Thurles Crokes Athletic Field. The 3rd and 4th Class athletes tackled an 800m course, while the senior pupils from 5th and 6th Class faced the full 1000m. Competing in the Major Schools Section, each race saw up to 100 children on the start line — a real test of stamina and determination. All Read more

Our 1st and 2nd class pupils enjoyed a fantastic school tour to the historic city of Kilkenny. The day began with a fascinating guided tour of the stunning Kilkenny Castle, a majestic 12th-century Anglo-Norman castle full of rich history and beautiful rooms. The children were curious and engaged as they learned all about life in the castle long ago. After the tour, everyone enjoyed some well-deserved playtime in the nearby playground, where laughter and energy filled the air. The fun didn’t stop there – the day ended on a high with tasty food and a few exciting games of bowling Read more

The indoor play area was the perfect place for the children to let off some steam, climb, slide and have fun with Read more
