Transition Year Exhibition Night
Prize Giving Ceremony 2014/2015
Active Schools Week
This took place during the week 27th April – 1st May 201.
The P.E. department arranged a number of activities to raise awareness of this event. Each morning at Assembly, the whole school took part in a dance activity.
The final event of the week was the Annual Student Teacher basketball match on Friday, May 1st.
During the interval the teachers entertained the school with a display of their dancing skills (this followed some intensive coaching sessions from Miriam Howlin!)
It was a fantastic success.
Special thanks to P.E teacher Miriam Howlin who organised the entire programme of events.
Needless to say the Student/ Teacher Basketball match was won by the teachers! That’s 57 years in a row. Even less surprising they completed the double when winning the dance-off.
