Dare to Believe Award
We were delighted to be awarded a Dare to Believe flag this week. We received this as our 2nd Class have engaged with the Dare to Believe Olympic Values programme which brings the Olympics to the classroom and inspires students to Dare to Believe in themselves.
As well as this, our whole school have engaged with Olympic movement breaks in each classroom and all received an inspiring virtual visit from Irish rower Aifric Keogh through this programme. Also, we held our own Knockskeagh Olympics this year where the Olympic values in the programme were a central theme for our games. Well done to all involved.
