The school community got together today for a fabulous sports day in the sunshine.  Many thanks to everyone who came along to either our Room 1 – 8 or Room 9 – 16 sports events and for cheering everyone along.  Below we have a slideshow of pictures from this afternoons event.  A slideshow of our Room 1 – 8 morning event will be posted tomorrow!! Mr.O’Dowd features but I don’t recall seeing him race or win so he has clearly pinched someone’s medals!!
