Physical Education

Athletics games

We are learning to work on our speed and reactions using a variety of different games.  We are getting faster and working on our stride to sprint over different distances. 

Tag rugby fun

The children are really loving having Tadgh back for some tag-rugby games. 

Some future rugby stars in the making!

Gaelic Football

We have an under 11's and senior team within the school which is made up of children from Kilkea N.S., Levitstown N.S. and Ballyroe N.S. They are a fantastic group with very positive attitudes and are always encouraging each other both on and off the pitch. 

We love to see so many children interested in taking part in GAA within the community. Well done to all involved. 

Our local GFC, Grangenolvin, visited our school to share fun drills with all the pupils. Mentors Brian and Eileen, along with senior team player Fionn and Colin organised a fantastic afternoon. 

The pupils took part in team games, experienced a close up with the club trophies and even grilled the two players during a Q & A session. The children were delighted and had so much fun! 

We feel very lucky! Grange Abú!
