Back in Action

“Mens sana in corpore sano” Healthy body, healthy mind.
It’s just fantastic to see the playing fields full once again and the students returning to class invigorated after an active lunch break.

The U15 football panel have certainly made their mark as they were the first to resume matches. They have two impressive victories over Gaelcholaiste Luimnigh and Glenstal already under their belts. Exciting times ahead !
