Anyway, before looking forward to what is happening this term, let's look back on last term and the start of this term.
The biggest event that occurred last term was the school winning the State Gaelic Football Championships hosted by Mansfield Park. The day was incredibly successful with both the Boys team and the Girls team topping their respective competitions. All who participated did so with great heart and enthusiasm. A special mention must go to Billy N. who was crowned as the player of the tournament for the boys competition.
In addition to that, we did a great deal of filming in class of different skills to do with Gaelic Football. I edited together a small 'highlights' package which was viewed at the assembly. If I can work out how to, I will put this up on this very blog.
This term has started with quite a rush. At the moment, I am busy preparing for the re-commencement of the Friday Afternoon Sports program and Active After School.
This term, we are offering the exact same sports for Friday Afternoon sports in Soccer and Netball. This term, the competition will be joined by St Mary's to add a little something different.
For Active After school, we will be doing Netball and Basketball. The arrangements for both these will be exactly the same as before with the Junior Primaries going on Wednesday and the primaries going on Thursday.
In addition, we are planning for a few very interesting little bits and pieces. We have started the premiers be active challenge. Children need to record themselves participating in at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day.
We are also going to enjoy a little bit of specialist coaching in Netball later in the term and in Rugby Union in preparation for a competition next term.
Well, that is pretty much it. Enjoy another action packed term where too much sport is barely enough.
