Basketball Match

Well done to the boys and girls basketballers who won their first ever basketball matches in the school on Friday, 31at January.

In light of the first basketball league match coming up, the boys and girls played a challenge match against Gaelscoil Éanna, Navan.

The boys had a very tough match, eventually defeating the boys' team from Navan 9 points to 6.

The girls had an equally tough encounter, finally finishing up victors on a score of 9 points to 7.

Well done to both teams!

The boys and girls both wore new sets of basketball jerseys, supplied by the Parents' Association.

Thank you to the Parents' Association and thank you to our two referees and coaches, Kitty and Brian!
