5th and 6th Class recently took part in the Tri Heroes programme, in collaboration with Triathlon Ireland. This programme offers a dynamic and engaging way for children to embrace the world of triathlons. This initiative not only focuses on nurturing the physical skills necessary for running, cycling, and swimming but also emphasizes the importance of safety, teamwork, and personal development. As part of the programme the children took part in a Splash and Dash event in September and they completed cycling lessons last week in school. They then completed the programme today in a duathlon on the school grounds which involved running and cycling.
Big thanks to Niamh from Sports Ireland for facilitating the programme and to Ms McSweeney for organising the events.
