Fastest School in Offaly!
A big well done to the children and classes who received medals and trophies for performing so well in the speed endurance test a few weeks ago. Before Easter, the children were practising their athletics skills with Johnny - endurance, speed, pacing and had a lot of fun.
After Easter, the children took part in the Offaly Sports Partnership Endurance test test where they had to run the course, up and down, for two minutes. They were competing against all the other school in Offaly. Coolanarney performed really well in the county winning 3 individual medals and 4 group trophies.
Class Trophy Winners:
A big congratulations and well done to all the children who helped Coolanarney place as one of the fastest schools in Offaly!

Best of luck to the Offaly U20 hurlers in the All Ireland this Sunday from all in Coolanarney N.S.
Everyone in the school want to wish the U20s the best of luck this Sunday in Thurles, especially to our two past pupils, Charlie Mitchell and Adam Screeney. All the boys and girls have great admiration for both players and all on the team.
We had a busy day here in the school. The boys and girls wore their Offaly jerseys (and a few KK jerseys in the mix) showing their support for our players. Not only showing support, but Midlands 103 visited the school to interview the children from 1st to 4th class about the final, their interest in sports, their favourite players and how they were going to cheer on our team on Sunday! All the children spoke so well and our past pupils, Captain Charlie Mitchell and Adam Screeney were both mentioned as favourite players by almost every child. It shows how much of an impact you are having on the children in the school and out future sports stars!

Junior Tour to Tearaways!!
Junior Infants, Senior Infants and 1st Class has so much fun on their school tour to Tearaways. It was an action fun-filled day that everyone enjoyed.
When we arrived, the children go to play in the indoor play area. There were slides, a ball-pit, climbing frames and a mini-zip line. We were then given a guided tour of all the animals that lived on the far. We was cattle, rabbits, alpacas, pigs, sheep and horses.
And to end the day the children go to play in the outside play area where they on go-carts, tractors, played on slides, climbing frames, got a train ride around the whole farm and played some large board games!
It was a great day that everyone enjoyed so much!
