The Tiermohan boys won their U11 game today playing against Robertstown. Playing as Cappagh, and despite some absences, they scored 5-9 to Robertstown 2-10. In their previous game they lost to Allen by two goals in a cracking game at home. Their next game is against Straffan NS.

Today we had a wonderful international experience. Fr Clem from Malawi enthralled the senior classes with stories of life in his home country. He explained some of the traditions of his people, and emphasised the respect for the elders inherent in all they do. David Gildea, who worked in a volunteer capacity during the summer in Malawi, brought some craft items made in Malawi and Fr Clem explained the origin of each. When Fr Clem modelled the wooden mask, we were reminded of hallowe'en in Ireland! It was a wonderful experience and one the children will remember for a long time.

Welcome back to all in our school community. A special welcome to our new teacher Ms Curran. Welcome also to our new infants who begin school this year. Welcome also to B and C who join 3rd class this year. We hope you all feel welcome in Tiermohan NS
