Congratulations to our Fifth and Sixth year students who recently received their certificates, medals and pins for achieving their Bronze Gaisce Award. The Gaisce Award, which means 'great achievement' in Irish is a self-development programme for all young people between the ages of 15-25. All of the students pictured above with TY coordinator Ms Farren and Gaisce President Award Leader (PAL) Mr McGee, achieved their award by completing four key challenge areas. These included volunteering in their communities, learning a new personal skill, getting involved in physical activity and completing a 2-day Adventure Journey. If any TY, Fifth or Sixth Year student would like to get more information on how to complete the Gaisce Award, go to www.gaisce.ie or speak to Mr McGee at school.

CCS v Crana College

In a changed knockout format, CCS were paired with local rivals, Crana College. The Buncrana team enjoyed home advantage in the first leg, played in perfect golfing conditions at Northwest Golf Club, Buncrana. Jack Duffy secured the individual prize for Crana College with a magnificent 4 under par round. However, great credit must go to the CCS boys who battled away to win the overall team score for the day. Martin O'Connor, Ryan Collins and Cormac Monagle all scoring well on an unfamiliar course.

The return leg was played in very challenging conditions at Ballyliffin Golf Club. The CCS boys certainly made most of home advantage, winning both the individual and team prizes. Martin O'Connor secured the individual honours with a brilliant 32 points in near gale force playing conditions. Ryan Collins won second with a very respectable 29 points. Cormac Monagle ensured a clean sweep for the CCS team when he posted the final score to ensure passage into the next round for CCS.
