We were delighted to welcome Coach Aoife back to our school for gymnastics during January and February this year.

Aoife has taught gymnastics skills to all classes every Monday over the course of these two months.

The improvements in pupils, strength, flexibility and co-ordination has been fantastic to see.

In addition to these skills, teamwork is so important during the formation of the “human pyramid”  as can be seen in our gallery below. 

Our pupils loved the high level of gymnastics on offer and we thank Aoife for providing fun and challenging sessions in a safe way. 😀

During the month of January our 3rd class girls and boys, assisted by a few volunteers from 2nd class, played some fantastic football in Ballinacarriga Hall during an indoor games series aimed at 3rd class level. 
The indoor games act as a great opportunity for our pupils to gain exposure to gaelic football in a non-competitve environment. 
The Knockskeagh teams can be very proud of their efforts and most of all their fun approach to each game. 
Well done to all participants for their performances! You should all be very proud 🏅👏

Phil Healy Visit

As part of the Dare to Believe programme, we were lucky enough to be awareded a special visit from Irish sprinter Phil Healy.
Phil received a rapturous welcome from all our pupils as she entered our school hall on Monday morning. 
Phil gave an insight into her career through her presentation and gave so much time for questions throughout her visit. She is a true role model for all and her words will inspire many of our pupils into the future.
Our pupils even got some relay run tips at the end of the visit.  The future is bright!
All at Knockskeagh NS are very thankful for your presentation and time today Phil. Best wishes in all your future endeavours.  #daretobelieve @phil_healy
