As a new initiative to promote sport in the school a period has been dedicated to first year sporting activities every Thursday after school. These activities include Basketball, Soccer, Hockey and Gaelic football. Each class was divided in two and named after a county team. Every team gets the opportunity to play against each other team in the various sports. Currently Cork and Tipperary are in the lead with the prospect of winning the mystery trip prize. However, other teams are still in close contention. This has proven to be a very successful initiative with excellent attendance and participation by all.
