Sports Day
June 17th, 2023Our school sports day took place on Friday. The children took part in hurling, dance and basketball and then took to their teams for lots of fun activities. Well done to our joint winning teams – the black team and the yellow team! We finished the day with a barbeque. We also took the opportunity to officially open our wonderful new playground. Big thanks to all the parents for attending and for helping out on the day!
Girls Football
June 13th, 2023Well done to our girls amalgamation (Fanore/Ballyvaughan/New Quay) who took part in the finals of the Cumann na mBunscol girls football competition. Unfortunately, we were up against a stronger and bigger Holy Family team and so it wasn’t our day but the girls gave it their all, helped by the wonderful Fanore supporters who travelled to Cusack Park with them!
Cruinniú na nÓg
June 11th, 2023The 10th of June marked Cruinnú na nÓg, the national day of creativity for children. This year Fanore NS was part of a wonderful gathering of young musicians from around the county who got together to play some tunes, make new friends and have a bit of fun. All of our senior room children took part in the day led by our wonderful Miss Howley who arranged all of the pieces and even wrote and arranged an original piece, Gáir Chatha na Boirne. Have a look at the finished piece below
