National gold medal winner!
The Senior Schools Swimming Irish Final 2008 was held
in Leisureland on Feb 1st. Two swimmers represented The High School.
Well done to Niamh Murphy (Form 2) who won the gold medal a year under
her age group in the Intermediate 100m Breast stroke. Dayna Clegg (Form
1) won 2 bronze medal places in the 100m BC and 200IM junior events,
also a year under her age group. Both girls set new Personal Best times. |

Junior girls basketball
The juniors recently played Portmarnock after a successful run of
matches, but found that their luck ran short in this match! After a
strong start, the team was winning by three baskets heading into the
second quarter. However, they let their guard slip a little and began to
fall behind. Heading into the third quarter they were determined to make
a comeback and caught up again to within just a couple of baskets. They
played their hearts out in the fourth quarter but the opposition was
strong and they lost 24-16. They hope to restore their winning streak
for the rest of the South Dublin League matches. (Thanks to Martha and
Jessie for the report.) |
