Some lucky pupils from the Senior Classes were chosen to go to Petersberg Adventure and Education Centre. It was co-ordinated by Paul Tannian from Ability West/Foroige. The pupils each had a partner to help, support and encourage them. The pupils and staff alike had a wonderful day in the sun. They did two activities: gorge walking and an obstacle course. The pupils were so brave and tried their very best at everything. Please click on the picture below to view a slideshow of the days events.

The whole school was over the moon with excitement when we heard that Ciara from Senior 2 had got a gold medal in swimming at the National Games. Delighted also with the performances of our past pupils Kawthar, Michelle and Eilish. They visited with their family members on Tuesday morning to show off their medals and to join in a victory parade at assembly. Sincere thanks to Karen our wonderful PE teacher for all the hard work and for being chaperone to the girls in Dublin. Thanks also to the Special Olympic committee in the school and to our swimming teachers in Leisureland who continue to give their time and expertise free to St Joseph's.
