Active School Week

This year's Active School Week takes place between April 23rd and 27th.

We are looking forward to many different activities being performed during the week!

We have many activities planned with visits from various sports stars, basketball matches and obstacle courses!

A great week in prospect!

Monday 23rd April

The first day of Active Schools Week saw the sixth class students pitted against the teachers. Despite a strong start from the students, the teachers proved to be too strong, leading 5-2 at the break before seeing off the students 12-6 in the end.

It was a great sporting event, with great sportsmanship shown throughout. All the viewing classes got in on the spirit of things too!

Well done all!

Defeat to Ballivor

Hard luck to our girls' football team who continued their campaign against Ballivor this week.

With one of their captains injured, the girls were up against it and despite a brave performance, that's ultimately the way the match went, with Ballivor ultimately proving too strong.

The girls battled bravely and worked very hard but Ballivor held the upper hand throughout.

Their next game is against Gaelscoil na Bóinne next Thursday in Trim.

Presentation to People Who Share Care

On Monday, 9th April, Kildalkey N.S. made a presentation towards the Athboy group ' People Who Care Share'.

People who Care Share is a group from Athboy who travel twice a week to help the homeless with food and clothes. Many young people help at the weekends. They have a Facebook page, detailing their work with the homeless.

On the back of a collection from the school, they were presented with a cheque to go towards their great work.

Thanks to all who contributed!
