First Confession and First Holy Communion
Best wishes to Aoibhe, Ari, Eli, Ella and Faye who make their First Confession this Thursday the 23rd of September and their First Holy Communion on Saturday the 2nd of October.
Basketball and Volleyball
Sports help children develop physical skills, get exercise, make friends, have fun, learn teamwork, learn to play fair, and improve self-esteem. At Togher N.S. we hope to give children an opportunity to play as many sports as possible. This summer the school yard has been lined and marked and new equipment has been purchased. We just needed a few budding engineers to put the equipment together.
Dunmanway Rugby Training
Rugby Training resumes this Sunday morning from 10am to 11am for all ages from Junior Infants to 6th Class, for both boys and girls.
Summer Holidays
Togher N.S. is now closed for the summer holidays.
We would like to wish our children and school community a wonderful and safe holiday.
Icecream!
The children were delighted to hear the jingle of the ice-cream van as it pulled into Togher N.S. The children were soon enjoying their ice-cream cones to celebrate the Summer holidays. Many thanks to our wonderful Board of Management for facilitating this lovely treat.
Pizzas!
Thanks so much to Andrew and Martina Healy of SuperValu for donating scrumptious pizzas to us today along with bottles of water.
Everybody loved this wonderful surprise. Thanks to Maura O Connell for delivering them.
