We played St Ailbhe’s Thurles in the semi final. We won this game narrowly on a scoreline of 3 goals to 2. The final was played in the afternoon Newport BNS v St Peter and Pauls A Clonmel . This was a very tight game with Newport BNS trailing 1 goal to nil at half time. Newport BNS were a much better side in the second half scoring two unanswered goals, the first goal was scored by Johnny Ryan to equalise the game. In the dying minutes of the final Nathan O’Donoghue placed the ball in the bottom left hand corner leaving St Peter and Pauls goalie with no chance. This secured the victory for Newport BNS. We will be playing the Munster finals in Waterford later in the month.

Our Proclamations
On Tuesday 15th March our school raised our National Flag. We read the Proclamation which was read on the steps of the GPO by Padraig Pearse 100 years ago.
We all wrote our own Proclamations with our class. We did this by brainstorming and discussing what vision we had for Ireland in the next 100 years. We wrote our Proclamations with passion and enthusiam. We are going to send them to Dáil Eireann for our current leaders to get inspiration from.
