Thursday mornings are great fun! The Junior rooms children come up to us and read to the children in 5th and 6th. They are super little readers.

Surf's Up!

Hundreds of waves, thousands of smiles and millions of fun!

A sincere thanks to Elvis, Charles and Aidan at Surf Mayo for helping us all get catching waves; lying down and on our feet. It is just a treat (and super beneficial) to bond with our classmates outside of the classroom. The sun was beating down on us and we were roasting in our wetsuits!
​
Our instructors remarked that it would be hard to find a group of 10/11/12 year olds up or down the coastline who are as enthusiastic and SKILLED at surfing as us. We have almost one hundred photos and a video here for you to browse; the photographer could hardly keep up with all the waves we caught : )

​Match report by 5th and 6th

On Wednesday the 18th of May, 2022, Killeen NS went to the Kilmeena for the Cumann na mBunscoil blitz. In the boys’ first game, we played Cornanool. Unfortunately, we faced a stronger side and they claimed victory. Our second game was against Mulranny. Killeen upped their game and were victorious. Lankhill were our opponents in our third game of the blitz. At this stage, Killeen were on a roll. The first half saw 5 scores for Killeen including one goal. Lankhill were with the strong wind in the second half and coupled with a tiring Killeen side, the tables were turned and Lankhill came out on top. The final game for the boys saw a powerful Carraholly team close the blitz with multiple scores.
​
The girls got going as soon as the boys’ matches were finished. Killeen met Mulranny in the first game. The Killeen girls started strongly with the wind and got enough scores to assure them of a win, even with a tougher second half.
Killeen girls had an easy, high-scoring win over Carraholly next. Cornanool did not field a girls team, so the final match was against Lankhill. This was a tough match with much bigger opponents. They had the advantage over us and won the game fair and square.
 
After not having any Cumann na mBunscoil blitzes for two years, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day out.
