St. Finian's Girls' team put in a heroic performance in John Markey Park, Annagassan today. They beat a very strong Collon team by a single point on a scorline of 4-0 to 3-2. There were great performances all over the field. From last stitch tackles to last minute goals. We couldn't be more proud of the performance the girls gave. They will now play in the final of the Corn Setanta against Muchgrange N.S. on Saturday the 20th of October at 10.30am in the O'Connells GAA grounds. All Support would be much appreciated. Well done Girls!!!

Well done to both our girls’ team and boys’ team that won both sections of their respective competitions this week!

First up was the girls’ 9-aside team, who beat Stabannon N.S. in Stabannon on Monday afternoon in the Corn Setanta. St. Finian’s really blitzed the Stabannon team in every attack, scoring a very impressive 6 goals! The girls really battled hard throughout and ran out 7 point winners. They will play their semi final next week.

Next up were the boys’ 7-aside team who beat a very impressive St. Francis Blackrock team by 2 points and a strong Walshestown team by 1 point. There were some excellent displays all over the field.

St. Finian’s are very proud to have both teams in the semi final next week. Well done boys and girls.

Fifth and Sixth Class were busy learning about the abstract painter “Jackson Pollock”The pupils examined some of his famous “drip” paintings. They practiced the technique of drip paintings using a variety of objects (not just brushes). In groups they created beautiful drip paintings. They had great fun outside making the pieces. When finished, each group named their painting and showed it to the class. The paintings will be put up on display throughout the school.
