Active Schools Week - Day 3

Múinteoir Michelle organised a super obstacle course for the first class boys and girls today. 

We loved the four different games on the obstacle course. We were very tired after all that running around!

Active Schools Week - Day 4

Today was the last day of our 

Active Schools Week. 

First and Second class played football with two super footballers from the Galway team. They showed us new football  skills, like the hand pass. 

We also finished our laps! We even ran a few extra to ensure we reached our target of 488 laps. Over the course of the week we ran a total of 492 laps!

Active Schools Week - Day 2

We had plenty of active fun today on day two of Active Schools Week. We had a very special hurling session with Greg Lally, a Galway hurler. 

After lunch we went outside to run our laps. Today we ran 5 laps each today. We were very tired afterwards and relaxed by doing some yoga stretches in the classroom. 

Hurling with Tom

Since the weather was so sunny and warm today, we went outside for our hurling session with Tom. We had a big match in the yard.
