The area once again did well in the Art and Model Making competition in February. And well done to the four draughts teams from Sixmilebridge/Kilmurry who did us proud in Tulla on Sat 25th Feb, returning home with Silver (u12), Bronze (u10b, u14) and Certs (u10a). See County Draughts Results. During March the area got Silver medals in the Mini Rugby and had some success in the Talent Show.
