Camogie and Hurling Blitz

Camogie and Hurling Blitz

Our 4th, 5th and 6th class girls and boys teams took part in the recent Sciath na Scoil camogie/hurling blitz held in Skibbereen GAA club this morning.

Well done to all involved in the organisation of this competition today. 

Today was a grading blitz to see what school teams would be suited to play against our school in another blitz in the coming weeks. 

Our boys and girls teams showed great skill, endeavor, and attitude in all their games. 

It was a positive experience for all our pupils some of whom never played hurling or camogie before. 

Well done everybody for giving your all this morning smile
