Cobh GAA Partnership/Coaching

by | Mar 21, 2022 |

Diarmuid Kearney has been doing fantastic work with Junior Infants – Rang 2 this academic year!

The children built up their strength, coordination and fundamental movement skills before Christmas through Gaelic football. For the last few weeks, Diarmuid has focussed on teaching hurling/camogie skills.

Cobh GAA’s School Coaching Program in Walterstown NS has been a great success!

A huge thanks to Diarmuid for sharing his knowledge and skill with us in the school to date.

Third Class are studying Vincent van Gogh and have drawn their own version of Sunflowers. They have taken part in athletics training and are enjoying lego with the children from First Class. They have done projects on marine litter and learned a lot about climate change and sea pollution.
