Well done to seven Fifth Years: Peter O’Duffy (5C), Richard Maguire (5B),
Richard Tunney (5D), Adrian Young (5D), Conor Grogan (5B) and Brian Hannon
(5B), who played tennis on a weekly basis with a group of seven students from St.
Declan’s Special School. This offered a great opportunity for the 6th Class primary
school pupils to practice and enjoy tennis with more experienced players. It is part
of a ‘Community Service Project’ organised by Ms. Ann Moore. A party was held
on 11th December to mark the end of the ‘tournament’.

had by staff, students, and members of the Gheel Institute alike.
