Busy month at Cloghroe National School

Sciath na Scol. Congratulations to our football team who competed in the Roinn 1 final of Sciath na Scol last month. Although Cloghroe were not victorious on the day, the boys displayed great determination and skill until the final whistle. Table Tennis. After many weeks of training, 6th class pupils competed in a Munster Table Tennis competition in the Tennis Village. Our pupils came home with a collection of medals and really enjoyed the day!

Quiz champions! Cloghroe N.S. participated in a science themed table quiz, which was held in U.C.C. and was organised in conjuction with the Lifetime Lab. Our quiz teams also competed in the Clogheen/Kerry Pike Parents Association quiz and emerged victorius on the night.

G.A.A stars. A big thank you to Cork inter-county stars Joanne Casey and Rena Buckley, who brought the O’Duffy cup and the Brendan Martin cup to our school assembly. Equally, thank you to John O’Callaghan and Colm Casey who displayed their silverware after winning the Intermediate All-Ireland hurling championship. The Inniscarra players continue to be a huge inspiration to all of our pupils in Cloghroe.

Comenius. Our partner Comenius schools recently visited Cloghroe N.S. Their visit included a whole school assembly,learning G.A.A. skills, a science fair and many class visits. It was a huge success and the pupils really enjoyed chatting to the teachers about their schools in Antwerp and Manchester.
