This year, Ms. Bergin has put together a wonderful team, known as The Well-being Warriors! This team is tasked with looking after positive mental wellbeing in school by organising fun and inclusive initiatives! In November, we enjoyed Self care week which coincided with Anti-bullying week. The team meet regularly with Ms. Bergin and we have a junior and senior well-being coordinator, Ronan and Oliver.

Ms Rolland’s class had a trip to Ballyfad woods today where they experienced the cold weather and the beauty that it uncovers in nature. These photos are just gorgeous!

These wonderful players are now Roinn B County Champions 2024-2025 having been unbeaten throughout the tournament. They beat a good Tintern side at Wexford Park and we thank Tintern for a fair and well played game. Thanks also to our local club, Castletown Liam Mellows, for their grass roots coaching and endless encouragement of many of our players.

We were delighted to welcome the men’s and women’s winning county finals teams to school to show their silverware and celebrate with the children. It has been a great few weeks for the local community!

These wonderful girls will be representing our school, Tara Hill NS and Coolgreany NS tonight, 05/11/2024 as they compete in the Rackard League Final. It takes place at 5pm in Chadwick’s Wexford Park. All support would be most appreciated as we cheer on this fantastic group of girls. There is a charge of €5 at the gate and I have been asked to note that no-one is allowed on the pitch, please. They are pictured with the women’s shield winners who are a great inspiration to them!We will post photos of the great gathering for the teams in school today as the photos come through.
