What makes a champion? Yesterday afternoon, on a cross between a paddy field and a mountain, he was gutted to run below what his talent and commitment deserved. Today he is Ulster/NI 1500m champion, the only athlete to do both events. Well done Frank. 👏🏅
Mr Shaw was adamant that preparations for the Ulster Cross Country championships must continue regardless of the ski trip - so Mrs Davis put the boys through their paces this afternoon!
Support Comes in all shapes and sizes. Many thanks to St. Ninnidh’s P.S
Derrylin and in particular Darragh Boyle P4 who produced this master piece in support of the Hogan Cup winners. Darragh also won first place for the best egg in p4 for his unique production.
I don't know how they do it in the canteen but every year they feed the masses for Christmas Dinner and keep 700 boys happy which isn't always easy, but credit where credit is due.
