Boys' Final Despair

Hard luck to the boys who lost their Division Two football final against Wilkinstown N.S. on Saturday, November 25th.

In what a tough and enthralling encounter, Kildalkey got off the mark wiith a fine score from Caemerhon. Tight defending from Wilkinstown limited them to one more score from Cian before half time, leaving the half time score 0-4 to 0-2.

The second half saw Kildalkey launch wave after wave of attack but Wilkinstown held firm. Fine scores from Aaron, Caemerhon and Jamie saw Kildalkey down by two at the death and when the final whistle blew, it was in Wilkinstown's goal mouth, trying desperately to get the winning score.

However, it wasn't to be. The boys can feel very proud of their performance, which saw them defend superbly for long periods and a little more luck could well have seen them sneak a win at the death. Particularly unfortunate was the injury to Jamie before the match.

The boys can hold their heads high though after what was a terrific campaign.

Mini Scientist Fair 2018

Well done to all who took part in the Mini Scientist competition this year.

The standard was simply extraordinary, with some outstanding projects on display.

When it all boiled down to it, there were three runners up with Blessing, Ava and Amy, and Lucy and Ava-Marie all being rewarded for their supreme efforts with runners up prizes.

Overall the top spot went to Shannon, Anna, Meadhbh and Ellen for their work on blood spatter - Does Spatter Matter? This in itself is a phenomenal achievement for this is the second year in a row for these girls to win it and the third for Ellen and Shannon.

Well done to all who participated and thanks to all those who came along.
