Our annual school Halloween Sponsored Cycle took place on Thursday 24th Oct.
Again this year we were so fortunate with the weather and we got lucky and we had some decent weather ensuring that the cycle would be a great day.
Our pupils that signed up for the option of the cycle had the serious task of cycling 7k to Ballykane and a small group of pupils braved this one along with Ms Greene and the parents who volunteered and helped out on the day. The children well and truly proved that we are a very active school and faced the task of a long cycle head on! We even some Junior Infant pupils who tackled the task and done brilliantly on the day.
Afterwards everyone headed back to the school and to meet back up with all our other pupils who done option 2 (red kite walk and avoca mill tour) and we all had some much needed refreshments and treats
The day was a fantastic success achieved only by the help and volunteering of our parents who were road marshals, who cycled alongside our pupils, who walked and supervised our smaller pupils and who volunteered afterwards to provide refreshments. Thank you to everyone who helped out on the day, we couldn’t of done it without you.
It was so lovely to get outside on the day and have some much needed fresh air for everyone!
We are still awaiting all sponsor cards to be returned to the school but once we have a final figure we will let parents know!
Again thank you to everyone for all your help and a huge well done to all our pupils and teachers for taking part in the event.
