Athletics 2025

2nd class to 6th class enjoyed athletics for the last 5 weeks at the TUS in Athlone. We did fun activities including races, long jumps, relays, obstacle races and much more. Each class got the chance to do a selection of activities and the instructors made the activities easier for the younger classes. Athletics took place in the TUS in Athlone. It is a great way for everyone to stay active and to communicate with others. Getting exercise is very important. All the students enjoyed athletics and all the fun activities that came it. Students can’t wait to go back again next year!
