Congratulations to our 6th Class Chess Masters

Our 6th Class Masters Chess team had a great day out at the Féile Fichille 2025 in Carrickpherish with Mr. Dunne and Ms. Halley. Each of our 8 team members played 6 games against teams from Gaeilscoil na Déise, Newtown NS, Fews NS, Seafiled NS and Portlaw NS. There were 136 children playing on the day. The boys gave an excellent account of themselves and enjoyed the tournament.

U13 Hurling Final

Well done to our U13 team who reached the Rionn C Shield final yesterday. Hard luck on a tough loss to a strong Faithlegg team.

They never threw in the towel and wore the school jersey with pride. It was a great opportunity for them to play in Walsh Park.

A special mention to the 4th class children who stepped up to play for the school’s senior team.

Congratulations and well done to our wonderful musicians from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th classes who performed in John Roberts Square under the amazing musical direction of Danny Pullman from Music Generation. We could not have been prouder of how well you played.

Our Mini Art Exhibition

Artist Adele Stanley worked with 5th and 6th class to produce some wonderful pieces, which she fired them in her kiln in her art studio near Lemybrien. We were so impressed with the finished pieces that we had a mini exhibition in the school hall.
