Flying Start!

Cross Country Championships.

We’re off to a flying start here in Collinamuck NS following the lovely, long, hot summer holidays.

The pupils in the Senior Room took part (or supported those who took part) in the Cross Country Championships in Renmore on Tuesday the 20th of September.

Well done to all of the pupils who participated and also to those who came along to support their classmates.

Gillian Lydon and Niall Kinnevey Cups

The pupils in the Senior Room had a brilliant day on Friday the 20th of May when they took part in the Gillian Lydon and Niall Kinnevey Cups in Killannin. The teams were mixed with players from surrounding schools to make up county teams for the competition. One of our 5th class pupils was the captain of the Galway boys team on the day so we got to take home the Niall Kinnevey Cup. Everyone enjoyed themselves and all of the pupils came home with a well deserved medal. Thanks to all of the organisers for a fun filled day.

GAA football gear!

On Wednesday 29th of September we were delighted to accept a gear bag full of training gear (footballs, training bibs and training cones) which was presented to our school by Killannin Football Club. The gear was presented on behalf of the club by Mark Carr and Pat Queally and gratefully accepted by the pupils from 4th, 5th and 6th class. After the presentation Mark and Pat had a word with pupils about the importance of sport and staying active.

Thanks very much to Killannin Football Club.
