Congratulations to all our 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th class pupils on completing their races in this year's Cross Country event in Thurles. 3rd and 4th class pupils ran an 800m course while 5th and 6th class ran 1000m. Our pupils finished strongly across all races and we were very proud of them - the poor weather conditions seemed to suit us. 3rd/4th class girls narrowly missed out on a team medal, finishing in 4th place overall. 3rd/4th class boys had 3 individual medal winners: Darragh Comerford (2nd), Eoghan Quirke (7th) and Conor Crosse (9th). The boys were joined by Daithí Comerford to secure the silver team medal. 5th/6th class girls claimed 4 top 10 spots, following each other across the line: Lauren Browne (4th), Bella Curling (5th), Grace Kelly (6th) and Louise Heney (7th), which gauranteed them the team gold medal. Our 5th/6th boys were led home by Aaron Kelly (7th) who was joined by Ted Ryan (12th), Thomas Breen (16th) and Conor Breen (23rd) to claim the bronze team medal. The following four athletes in this race missed out a medal with a 4th place team finish. Comhghairdeas libh go léir.
