Sky Sports Challenge 2016

We are the first school in Ireland to sign up for the Sky Sport's Challenge. Owen Diviney came to work with us and he told us all about the project. He organised special t-shirts for us to wear when we are doing any activity that relates to the challenge. We are teaching the children in the school as part of the challenge. We are doing orienteering and outdoor activities with each class. We have to make the resources and plan out each lesson. We are working in teams of 3 and each team is assigned to a class. Ms Giblin is supporting us every step of the way and she is so helpful and is great at giving us advice. She even had a lot of the resources made so we are just following her guidelines. A huge thank you to Ms Giblin for all of her help. Owen Diviney gave us a band to wear which reminds us of our goals.
