We had our Annual sports day on Thursday 15th June at the school and it was a fabulous event.
We had lots of different stations with activties set up for the children to take part in. We had 5 colour teams ranging from Junior Infants up to sixth class. The children spent time at each activity and then moved on. Everyone made such a fantastic effort at all activities and had so much fun which was the most important!
It was a beautiful day and very hot being so active. Patrick O Toole treated the children to much welcomed ice creams so thank you from everyone for the lovely treat.
Thank you to all the parents who came along and helped on the day.
We had our medal presentation at the end of the day and each child was presented with their own personalised medal (Thank you to Emily Flannery for these!) We had lots of treats of popcorn and goody bags and some lovely refreshing cold fruit to cool everyone down throughout the day (Thank you to Cleo Griffin for manning the refreshments for us) Our 6th class were presented with their farewell graduation gifts from the school which composed off a personalized hoody & a class photo with a treat. They went on to have their 6th class outing that evening in Kidzone.
We had our final for the main races at the end of the day also judged by Thomas. Our final winners were Niamh Nolan for the sack race and welly throwing and Chleo Quinn for the spud & spoon race. Well done girls!
We also raised our new Green Flag which we achieved recently for Water. A huge well done to our Green Schools Team and Ms Nuzum for all their hard work.
It was an absolutely fantastic day and it was so great to see all the children being outside and being active. There were lots of very tired faces at the end of the day!
Well done everyone on a great Sports Day 2023!!!!
