Congratulations to local Rockchapel footballer, Brid Stack, a member of the Cork Ladies' football team which won an historic 5 in a row at Croke Park on Sunday last. Several of our pupils were at the match. Last year Brid visited us with The Brendan Martin Trophy and we hope to see her again in the coming weeks when the team and the trophy goes on the school tour circuit. Brid's father, Michael is,of course,school principal at Rockchapel NS. our neighbouring school.

Brid and Brendan on tour last year !!!!!

Our school captain, Patrick Collins passed a mathematical remark on the scoreline.Patrick pointed out that 1-9 won the All-Ireland for the Cork Ladies on Sunday whilst the week beforehand 1-9 lost the All-Ireland for the Corkmen.Patrick also ruefully pointed out that in 2007 All-Ireland Senior Football Final the Corkmen also scored an identical 1-9.

What a significant score 1-9, 1-9, 1-9.
