As the winter weather sets in our Active school committee thought it would be a good idea to organise a Uni Hoc tournament to keep our students active through the wet winter days. A senior and junior league was set up in order to make the games more inclusive. Captains were chosen and teams picked. The teams then decided on their own team names. A list of the teams and their names is available in the next post.

Our non competitive running tour of South Galway/North Clare

Our pupils have been touring the country side this past month through a ''drop everything and run'' initiative. The children are encouraged to run or walk laps of the playground at different times throughout the school week. The distance they travel is then aggregated and a total distance is calculated. Five laps of the yard by 1 person adds up to roughly 1 Km. The senior room have been averaging about 20-24 km after five minutes of running when all their distances are added together. As the children hit landmarks along the way such as-Thoor Ballylee, Coole Park, Dunguaire castle, the cliffs of Moher etc.- each room's marker is moved to show how far they have traveled collectively.
