12th November:

On Friday we went on our annual school sponsored walk, and this took place around the grounds of nearby Teagasc. The whole school gets involved in this fantastic activity, and it was great to see young and old pupils out enjoying the fresh air and getting some energetic exercise. Mr Fahy set a terrific pace at the front, and we certainly all benefitted. Well done to all and don't forget to get out walking yourselves at home whenever you get the chance.
