Active flag slogan and poster competition
The active committee ran a whole school competition for our new Active Flag slogan for 2025/2026. Each class had 3 winners. The committee then voted on the slogan 'We were made in 1901 to be active, sporty and have lots of fun' as the overall winner. We are very happy with our new Active Flag slogan for the year. Go raibh maith agaibh gach duine.
