Mackey Cup

Mackey Cup returns to the South

 

Congratulations to Seán Murnane and Aaron Hanley who played on the South Limerick team which won the Mackey Cup in the Gaelic Grounds recently. The boys played in both the semi-final (where the South defeated the East) and final (where the South edged a close game with the City).

They join a select group of past pupils of the school with Mackey Cup medals. (that group includes Killian O’Shea, Oisín O’Grady, Dermot Breen and Mike Bermingham)

If anyone knows of other past pupils who have won Mackey Cup medals, we would love to give them a mention here.

A Fruit Filled Day

A number of children from different classes made super smoothies. The children had great ideas for recipes and created many delicious smoothies, using different fruits including strawberries, blueberries and plums.

INTO Mini Sevens

The INTO Mini Sevens team represented the South in UL where they narrowly lost out to Doon CBS and Milford NS and picked up a convincing win against Courtenay NS. Thanks to the great performance, Adam Boyle will get to be a referee in a mini-sevens game in Croke Park at half time during the All Ireland hurling semi-final in August.
