Partnerships
September/October
Waterford Sports Partnership
We got in touch with the Waterford Sports Partnership in Term 3 last year to talk about updating our playground markings. A representative from the Partnership visited our school just before the summer holidays equipped with all the necessary materials and we were thrilled with the final results. They are being used daily during playtime and are a great way of encouraging active play.

Kilrossanty GAA Club
We are very to have a very supportive GAA club in Kilrossanty. Representatives from the club help with football/hurling training every year. Ger, Paudie and Séamie are all giving their time and expertise on a weekly basis and we are very grateful for that. The GAA club also sponsored our boys and girls teams with new footballs and a new First Aid kit this September as we began training for the new school year.
ACTIVE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Pupils from 1st-6th class were invited to apply to be part of our Active Flag Committee at the start of October. There were so many fantastic applications. It was great to see such enthusiasm from the children in wanting to achieve a 4th Active Flag for our school. Our new committee members are: Caoimhe, Catríona, Jennie, Ollie, Ella, Brian, Oliver, Ava Mai, Colleen, Ronan, Alex, Carli and Jessica. Well done everyone!
Active School Slogan
We held a school wide competition in October in order to come up with a new Active Slogan for our school. There were some great ideas and posters produced and these are now displayed along our Active School noticeboard. Our overall winner was Emma in 4th class with the sloaan: ;'Go, go, go, Let's have some fun. Let's get active everyone!' Well done Emma!
