During break on the 25th November the 1st year students years had a rounders game against the teachers. The teachers batted first, and Mr. O’Callaghan was the first batter and he had a fair hit but he only got to 1st base. The rest of the teachers batted with the help of a few 3rd year students with a surprisingly good hit from our History teacher, Ms. Kenny and our Computer Studies teacher, Ms. O’Kelly.
The teachers racked up 8 points. It should have been more if it wasn’t for Robert Coakley’s amazing catches. Then it was the students turn. Thomas Howe was up first with a great hit managing to get to 2nd base, just sliding in there. Every student had a great hit and the students got up to 14 points. But according to the teachers it was 10 all! The students agreed (reluctantly) and we all called it a tie game. Everybody had a great time and the students cannot wait for the rematch.

As is tradition at this time of year, the annual rounders game took place between our outgoing 6th Years and Teachers. Despite great efforts by our 6th years and some fabulous play, Teachers came out victorious. Fair play to all who played in this game.
