St Pat's GAA club, Palmerstown 

Peter from St Pat's GAA club came to inspire boys in our school to join local GAA clubs. Peter taught the boys over a 5 week period and the boys learnt a lot. Peter taught the boys the fundamentals of hurling and on the last two weeks showed the boys some of the basic skills of Gaelic football such as the hand-pass, solo and the pick-up. The boys thoroughly enjoyed the 5 weeks and we hope to have Peter back soon. 

Hip-hop Dance Taster

Boys in Junior Infants, 3rd, 4th and 5th class were lucky enough to get a 5 week block of Athletics with Franco thanks to Kylemore school completion. Franco demonstrated the fundamental movement skills to the boys. Franco also got the senior boys involved in set-up and running sessions as part of our Leadership Program.
