Congratulations to our athletics teams recently who participated in the Cumann na mBunscol athletics competition in Portlaoise. The children’s achievements were acknowledged at assembly last Friday. There were over a hundred athletes in each race and our teams won medals in all the events. Congrats to them all and our thanks to Mr. Slevin for his help and advice to the boys and girls on the day.
