World Champion
Congratulations to Martina McMahon, sixth year who is the World Champion Handball Champion. She won gold in the U17 Womens’ B Competition which was held this week in the R.D.S Dublin. Martina is a very dedicated sports person, she has represented the school in a number of different competitions over the years.
Hurling: First Year hurlers took part in a Football Blitz in Neville Park on Thursday last. They won three of their matches.
Junior Golf: Our junior golf team Stephen Conmy, William Lynch and P.J. Noonan took part in the Irish Schools Junior Golf Championship which was held in Castletroy Golf Club last Monday. They were in competition with schools from Thurles and Roscrea and they had a very successful day of playing. The ground conditions were very difficult due to the recent heavy rain. All played off a handicap of 15.
Business Quiz
Third Year Business students took part in a Business Quiz organised by the Business Teachers’ Association of Ireland in conjunction with CIMA. The quiz was held in LIT and they were accompanied by Ms Bunyan and Ms Mulqueen.
Careers Day
A very successful Careers Exhibition was held in the school last Saturday. There was a large attendance of Senior Cycle students and parents. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Parents’ Association and past pupils who gave their time very generously to organise the event.
