Jersey Day for GOAL
This Friday the 11th of October is GOAL Jersey Day across schools and businesses in Ireland. As part of our Green Schools Theme, Global Citizenship, 6th class are organising Jersey Day for our school. Everyone is invited to wear a jersey to school. It can be any jersey (GAA/ Rugby/ Soccer/ Athletics/ Basketball/ Club/ County etc.) and if pupils don’t have a jersey maybe they could borrow one from a relative, sibling etc. A small contribution to GOAL (fighting global hunger) would be great and 6th class have a collection box for this. We’re hoping pupils will enjoy it!

Thanks for the lovely music.
Then everyone wanted their photo taken with the cups.
