Cross-country 2023
We had a fantastic day at the Cross-Country running in Killinkere on Wednesday, 11th of  October. The 35 children who represented the school did their very best against 200 other pupils in their races. We had 2 individual winners- Aoibhinn Farrelly came 2nd and Katie Hannon came 5th in the Junior girls 600 m race. We came 2nd overall which was a fantastic achievement considering we were up against 46 schools altogether.

Cumann na mBunscol 2023
Our camogie team were unlucky to be beaten in Cumann na mBunscol final in Breffni Park on Thursday 26th October by their club team mates from Kilnaleck NS. They put up a great fight and played their hearts out. They should be very proud of themselves having won 4 games out of 4 to get to the final. On another day the    result could be different! A huge thanks to Mrs Clarke and Geraldine for training  the team and preparing them for the final. Thanks to the parents who kindly drove the girls to the matches.

ATHLETICS​
Today, 30 pupils represented our school in the cross-country running in Killinkere. There were approximately 180 to 200 pupils running in each category. We are very proud of all the boys and girls who each took home a gold medal in their categories. Some children won individual medals for their effort in finishing in the top 12 runners in each category. In the Junior boys, Charlie Reilly ran 600 metres and came 6th. Aoibhinn Farrelly was placed 5th in her race. Cillian Reilly and Lorcan Farrelly both ran 1km and were exceptional today. Cillian came 10th in the senior boys while Lorcan came 1st. The final prize presented to the school today was the Rice Perpetual Cup for the overall school in the county cross-country running. The pupils were thrilled to take this cup home to Crosserlough for the first time ever. Well done everyone today. You did yourselves, your families and your school proud today.
