Class Trip to the Hunt Museum & Limerick Fire Station

Second & Third class went on a very enjoyable trip in October to the Hunt Museum & Limerick Fire Station. A Second class pupil Ericka had entered an art competition in the Hunt Museum and she won a prize of a guided tour of the museum for her class. The children enjoyed going on an ‘animal hunt’ in the museum where they had to find a number of animals which were depicted in paintings & statues.

 

On the way back to school, the class visited Limerick Fire Station. The firefighters were very generous with their time and gave the children a tour of the station and allowed them to use some of the equipment.

Anthony Baggott Cup 2015

The Anthony Baggott Memorial Cup competition took place on Friday June 12th in Herbertstown. The well attended event saw 3 south teams, Herbertstown NS, Knockainey NS and Hospital NS joined by East representatives Barna NS to compete for the cup. There were many close contests before a final pairing of Hospital NS and Knockainey NS was decided.

In the final, a fine Knockainey NS team proved just too strong for Hospital NS who were impressive in their run to the final.
