Well done Sam!

Sam, the City Mayor's Cup team vice captain, receives his 2016 Mayor's Cup winner's medal from Deputy City & County Mayor, Gerald Mitchell. In the Mayor's Cup final, Sam's team defeated Milford NS (who defeated Patrickswell NS in the Olo Cup final recently) at the Gaelic Grounds. Sam played very well in the final. A point he scored from an acute angle,while on the run down the left wing, was arguably the score of the day.

St. Patrick's F.C., the local soccer club, had a very successful year. Some club members visited the school this week. It proved to be a hugely popular visit with the pupils who were delighted to see some of the trophies St. Pat's won during the year ... and becuase the visitors brought goodies for everybody in the audience!

Jim teaches CPR to 6th Class

6th Class pupils learned the basics of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and First Aid this year. Jim Hartnett was their instructor. We are very grateful to Jim for  sharing his expertise with our pupils, once again this year. He is an excellent instructor with a passion for making people of all ages aware of the importance of knowing how to perform CPR, how to use a defibrillator properly and what to do in a medical emergency. Chairperson of the Board of Management, PJ O Grady (an experienced paramedic, himself) was on hand to present course completion certificates to the pupils.
