Sports Day 2023

Sports Day 2023

This morning the outlook didn’t look great for our Sports Day However thankfully the sun started to shine through the clouds and soon after shone brightly on Knockskeagh all day long!!

Spirits rose and the energy levels heightened as we basked in sunshine again!! What followed was an action packed day of Sports activities including fun relays, basketball, obstacles courses, a bouncy castle course, yoga, Olympic handball and rock art.

Many thanks to all our staff in organising the fun activities, our pupils had a ball!! 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️

The visit of Freddie’s Ice Cream was the best way to cool off after such a fun day! Yum!!

Well done to everyone involved
