Camogie and Hurling Tournaments 2022

Our school recently held internal camogie and hurling tournaments for pupils in 2nd and 3rd classes, as well as in 5th and 6th classes.

Dick Barrett Cup

Our 5th and 6th class pupils played for the Dick Barrett Cup.

Some fantastic hurling and camogie was on display all day!

Thank you to The Weir Family Health Clinic for their kind sponsorship of the tournament.

Little ‘Flyer Nyhan’ Cup

2nd and 3rd-class pupils played a camogie/hurling tournament recently in beautiful sunshine. The pupils played for the inaugural Little Flyer Nyhan Cup which is named after the famed Flyer Nyhan who is a past pupil of our school.

There was fantastic skill, endeavor and teamwork on display. In a very close final, Cork gained victory over Kilkenny.

Well done to all participants for their efforts today.
