Well done to our 3rd and 4th class girls who took part in the LGFA blitz held at JTBCS Hospital. It was great day of football. Well done to the TY Students, their teachers and John Mc Namara from LGFA for organising. Our girls had a tremendous day out. They really enjoyed the fun warm up and games. They all received a participation medal at the end of the day. Well done all!
Well done to both our Boys Hurling and Girls Camogie teams who have represented the school in the last few weeks.
Both teams played Kilmallock, Bruree and Bruff. These were hard fought games and both teams gave their all in each of the games.
Well done to all involved.

We wish to thank the Parent’s Association for running the annual Easter Egg raffle throughout the classrooms.
It brought great excitement to the classrooms everyday. Congratulations to all the lucky winners.
Also on this day we celebrated ‘Rock your socks’ day for World Down Syndrome Day.

Thank you all for your support.
This week the boys and girls in our school completed their annual spring clean.
We set out around our local village and collected any rubbish we came across.
Knockainey once again this year has proven to be a very tidy and well kept
community. This is a testament to the wider community and also the tidy towns committee, all of who clearly have great pride in their little village.
Many thanks to all the pupils, staff and especially to our Green School committee for organising this initiative.
Míle buíochas,
The Green School Committee.
Well done to all our 5-a-side soccer teams who travelled to Sean Choill in Corbally last Friday for the FAI Primary Schools Soccer competition. We had a fantastic day out and all the children really enjoyed the day despite the weather conditions. Well done to all who participated.
