Extra Curricular Activities

In our school, children take part in various activities and competitions both during school hours, at lunchtime or after school. We have a boy’s Gaelic football team, a girl’s Gaelic football team and a boy’s hurling team. These children take part in matches against other schools in our local area. They train after school every week.

We also have a girls and boys soccer team which take part in the official FAI competition. The children attend various indoor and outdoor athletics events throughout the year also.

We are very lucky to have a traditional Irish music group in our school also. They play a variety of instruments including:

• ·        Accordion

• ·        Flute
• ·        Concertina
• ·        Guitar
• ·        Banjo
• ·        Harp
• ·        Tin Whistle
• ·        Keyboard
• ·        Violin

This group performs every year in Fleadh Ceol na hEireann. They also perform at various school and community events.
