Day two of Active Schools Week took us to Dr. Morris Park for a morning of Gaelic Games, organised by the local GAA Schools Coaching Teams. Children participated in both Football and Hurling blitzes, all played out in high spirits.  This was followed up by a tour of Semple Stadium.

Day 4 of Active Schools Week saw the children take to the school grounds for obstacle course and circuit activities - All closed off with a very exciting Penalty Shoot out Competition. 

ASW Friday May 12th  

Day 5 of ASW was the most fun of all! The children embraced a variety of water based activities with much enthusiasm. Tonnes of running, throwing and not so much catching of the water balloons! It was a very sunny day so the grass benefitted to boot. A great way to end our ASW. 
During Active School Week children replaced written homework with P.E. Homework. That got a big thumbs up!

A great variety of evening activity was enjoyed by all the children for the duration of the week.
At the end of Active Schools Week all the children were presented with a well-deserved certificate.
