We’ve had yet another fantastic Active Schools Week in St. Fiacc’s! The sun shone, the bikes were out & everyone had the chance to try something new with our busy schedule of games & activities. Everyone’s exhausted & looking forward to a well-deserved rest over the weekend after an action-packed week for all classes. The week finishes on a high today with the raising of our Active School Flag which was awarded to us this week because of St. Fiacc’s commitment to sport & activity throughout the school this year.
Our Active Schools Week wouldn’t have been such a success without the support of many local groups, clubs & organisations.
