The Senior Room had a brilliant day at the annual Rounders Blitz in Michael Glaveys GAA this week. The children did themselves and their school proud displaying great teamwork, determination and sportsmanship throughout the day.

We were narrowly defeated in our opening game against Cloonyquinn N.S. before bouncing back with an excellent victory over Rahara N.S. In our final match of the day, we were again narrowly beaten by Grange N.S. after another closely contested game.

Each match provided valuable learning opportunities, and the children improved with every game they played. Most importantly, everyone had a fantastic day out, enjoyed representing the school, and gained plenty of experience and confidence.

Well done to all involved! 👏⚾🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Congratulations to our girls’ team who were crowned Cumann na mBunscol Roscommon County Champions after a fantastic victory over Cloonyquinn NS in Ballyleague yesterday.

The girls showed great skill, determination and teamwork throughout the match and fully deserved their success.

A sincere thank you to the parents, families and supporters who travelled to Ballyleague to cheer the team on, and well done to Cloonyquinn NS for a sporting and competitive final.

We are incredibly proud of our girls on this wonderful achievement.

Maith sibh, a chailíní! 🏆

Our senior classes had a brilliant day at Westport Adventure Centre in County Mayo. The children had a very busy and exciting day taking part in a wide range of activities including the climbing walls, net park, slides, foot golf and the nature trail. They also enjoyed a ride on the train around the beautiful grounds of Westport House.

There was great excitement in the school this week as we welcomed five Roscommon GAA football players, some of whom are past pupils of our school. The players have all been part of recent winning teams in Connacht and kindly brought along the cups for the children to see up close.

The trophies included: 🇺🇦

• Connacht Men’s Senior Cup
• Connacht Men’s U-20 and Minor Cups
• Connacht Minor A LGFA Cup
• Connacht U-16 LGFA Cup

The children thoroughly enjoyed meeting the players and getting the opportunity to see the silverware firsthand.

A big thank you to Kilmore GAA and the Roscommon County Board for arranging this memorable visit for our school.💙💛

The Junior Classroom had a fantastic day on their school tour to Willowbrook Glamping and Hideaways. The children enjoyed exploring the fairy forest, building forts, making their own pizzas, digging for treasure, toasting marshmallows and taking part in lots of other fun games and activities. A brilliant day was had by all! 🌳🍕🔥🏕️

Well done to our mixed basketball team who competed in the A final against Boyle Parochial School. Although the result didn’t go our way, the team showed brilliant character, determination and teamwork throughout the game, battling hard right to the final whistle. We are very proud of their effort, attitude and sportsmanship. Thank you to Mrs. Devaney for coaching the team.

Well done to our mixed basketball team who played a great semi-final against Cloonyquinn NS. Aughrim came out on top and now progress to the final — best of luck to the team!

On the same day, our girls’ soccer team took part in a blitz, winning 2 out of their 3 games. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to reach the final, but a fantastic effort from all involved.

We celebrated Earth Day by rolling up our sleeves and taking care of our environment! The children worked together to clean up around the school grounds and our polytunnel.

It was fantastic to see such teamwork and pride in looking after our planet. Every small action makes a big difference! 🌿💚

Pupils were delighted to get back working in the polytunnel for the first time this year, getting stuck in as they began sowing potatoes. A great start to another busy and enjoyable growing season. 🥔

Pupils enjoyed great days at a basketball blitz in Castlerea and a soccer blitz in Gurteen, showing excellent teamwork and sportsmanship throughout. They played several matches, improved their skills, and most importantly, had lots of fun.
