Rugby Blitz

Our 1st – 6th class pupils took to the field in Clonakilty RFC grounds yesterday for the annual rugby blitz.

Thankfully the sun shone all day long which made for a fabulous day of rugby.

All at Clonakilty RFC deserve huge praise for their incredible organisation of this event.

There was fun, games and even some super dance moves on display from all our pupils. 😊

Thank you to our visiting rugby coach Finny too, who visits us every Thursday during this half term. 😊

Our fourth annual Golf Classic will take place next Saturday September 27th in Clonakilty Golf Club.

In recent years the golf classic has helped raise funds towards; a new astro turf play area and more recently Special Education Development.

All support for this worthy cause would be greatly appreciated  🙏

Our golf classic is a 3-ball scramble this year, and we welcome all golfers, experienced and not-so-experienced, on the day. It promises to be great fun!

Again this year we will have a juvenile competition which was a great success last year. 

 

Golf Raffle

As part of the golf classic fundraiser, we are selling raffle tickets where the 1st prize is a four-ball in the Ballybunion Cashen golf course. This much anticipated new developed course is scheduled to be lanuched in Summer 2026 and really is a fantastic prize. 

If interested in supporting us, please contact the school via phone or email.
