Stratford College students have enjoyed a bumper term of sports since returning to school in January. From some great wins in basketball for both the 1st and 2nd Year girls and boys teams, to a super performance and personal best, in the finals of the West Dublin Leinster Cross Country Championship by one of our 4th Year Students.

It’s not just about competitions though, students have been enjoying tag rugby, dance, gymnastics and self-defence classes too, as well as outdoor adventure orienteering, and team building challenges.Speaking about the focus on physical movement, PE teacher Linda Finnegan said: “Students are getting out there, trying new activities and really challenging themselves, it can be a hard few months to find the motivation - dark mornings and short days - but by making it fun, inclusive and varied, we’ve seen students push themselves physically and mentally, and learn some key life skills about effort and resilience along the way”.

It’s almost mid-term so keep up the good habits!
