On Wednesday 23rd June approx 500 pupils took part in Doire Colmcille Day in St Patricks, Pennyburn.
Pupils from Primary 3,5,6 and 7 were given great coaching by the coaches from Doire Colmcille. It was an all day event with each year group coming to be coached at different intervals and take part in Go Games blitzs within the school grounds. The coaches were assisted by the school teachers and classroom assistants and all help was greatly appreciated by the coaches.
The teachers felt they learnt a great deal from the day and the pupils throughougly enjoyed their day. All pupils were encouraged to wear a GAA jersey and highlight the strong link the school has with GAA. It is hoped that this will be an annual event linking Doire Colmcille with St Patricks, Pennyburn.
Many thanks to Matthew Maguire, Ronan McDaid and Kevin Brady as well as GPO Stephen Mc Callion who facilitated the day.
