Meath Minor All Ireland Winners 2021
We were delighted to be visited by the Meath All Ireland team members and their manager Cathal O Bric. These young players are a great inspiration to our budding Gaelic footballers and Cathal had some words of encouragement for them also. They were accompanied by St. Colmcille’s GPO, Conor Brennan who comes in weekly to teach the girls fundamental Gaelic skills. An Mhí Abú! §
Halloween Samhain
Réalt na Mara GNS love to celebrate the ancient Irish tradition of Halloween. The children in third class enjoyed decorating the school and their classrooms with their beautiful Halloween artwork. They also had a great time dressing up to celebrate this fun time of year. Third class got very creative this year with their costumes. They all looked really spooktacular!
