Fourth Class Indoor Hurling Blitz

Fourth Class travelled to Little Island last Wednesday to take part in a Sciath na Scol organised Indoor Hurling Blitz.

Over the past number of weeks, the class have been developing their skills during PE, and their hard work paid off as they reached the final of the seven team blitz.
In the final, the boys performed really well but were beaten 2-1 by New Inn.
Well done to all on a great day out and a huge thank you to Mr Lynch for organising the event.

After a number of heats, Josh Radley and Tom Folley contested the final and after two races, it was Josh who claimed the Boat Race title. Well done Josh!!
