Last Wednesday, 25th of September, our athletics team travelled to the annual St. Laurence O’Toole Cross Country for Primary Schools in Carlow Hurling Grounds.
Well done to our 48 strong team who all started and finished their own respective race which was the goal at the outset! Unfortunately, the weather was not in our favour on the day but a great day nonetheless.
A special mention to our 3 medal winners, Oskaras in 4th Class and Sara in 5th Class who placed 8th in their races against stiff competition. Congratulations to Christopher in 6th Class who placed 7th in his race. We also had some excellent placings by the boys and girls in all the races.
See below for photos and medal winners. A special thank you to Ms Brennan, Ms Doyle and Ms Ryan who attended on the day.
We are so proud of all our runners who represented the school so well. Maith sibh!
