Olo Cup semi final report
Patrickswell 2-4 (10) Milford 4-3 (15)
Having contested the last 3 under 11 finals, Milford came into this match with a very strong panel with the majority of their boys in 6th class. The Well boys gave their all but it just wasn't to be their day. Martin Murray, Jake Carey+Cian Enright were excellent in our defence while Cian Gorman&Eoin Harmon worked tirelessly in midfield. John Kirby, Jamie Byrnes and Niall Kerins did well up front while Cian Fitzgerald undoubtedly gave a man of the match performance from half forward.
With 8 under 11s on our starting team, it was a great performance from such a young side.

Plassey 2014
Patrickswell NS was represented by 51 athletes at this year's Limerick Primary Schools Athletics finals which took place as usual in Plassey, U.L. On a cold damp day, there was plenty to warm the hearts of parents, pupils and teachers alike as the girls team, in particular, turned in one superb performance after another and won ten of the 12 races they entered. It was no surprise when they were declared champions of their division at the closing ceremony. The trophy was presented to representatives of the girls team by Eileen Stapleton of the organising committee.
The boys team finished second in their division.
The boys team finished second in their division.
School News: Mid May 2014...
We're just getting over the excitement of last Saturday's First Holy Communion (and what a great day it was!) and one thing's for sure - the school year didn't end in Patrickswell Church last Saturday. There's no let-up in terms of interesting and exciting things for pupils to do and look forward to over the coming weeks.
* A super project about making a better future for all the world's children by 4 Fifth Class pupils has won a regional award and is now shortlisted for an Irish Aid National Award. The pupils will be presented with a plaque at a prize-giving ceremony in the Lime tree Theatre next Wednesday, where they will also learn if their project has been selected for further honours. *The school's Under 11 and Under 13 hurling teams will both contest the City semi-finals this week. Both are reigning City 'A' champions. Neither have been beaten for over a year! (check out our Tweet Archive/Twitter for further details. *3 boys won coveted Mackey Cup medals (County Championship for inter-divisional primary schools hurling) with the victorious Limerick City team this week - Cian Enright, Patrick Kirby and Cian Fitzgerald. {Well done lads! You have joined a very select group of people from Patrickswell who have won one of these coveted medals (there are men in the Parish with 'All-Star' awards who wll be jealous of you now!!!)}. Well done also to Mr. O Connor, a key member of the City team's management team. *48 pupils will represent the school in the Limerick Primary Schools Athletics Finals at Plassey (University of Limerick) today. It's a great occasion - and always a very memorable occasion for the 1,500 pupils (or so) from schools all over Limerick who qualify for the 'Olympics' of Limerick Primary Schools athletics! *There are lots of interesting nature projects going on in the school at the moment. Nesting boxes (& 'regular' nests) housing our feathered friends and their young are filling us with wonder and awe (from a safe distance, of course), a wildflower bed is under construction as part of our effort to secure a Green Flag for bio-diversity; beanstalks are being grown by the boys and girls in Ms Noonan's room, and 'incredible edibles' are being grown by older pupils. *Literacy and Numeracy testing of pupils in classes from 1st to 6th will take place soon. Standardised Tests (Sigma T, Micra T and Drumcondra Tests) will be used. Screening tests (such as the MIST test) will be used with younger pupils. *Other events/activities/projects in the pipeline, which we hope we will be able to complete before the Summer Holidays, include: School Tours, a short film made by senior pupils, Sport for All Day, Annual School Magazine, 6th Class Graduation Mass, Fundraising Walk, Nature & History Walks, 6th Class v Teachers Soccer Match *and lots, lots more!
