Mini – 7’s Kilconeiron by Liam Curley

On 7th October we had a Mini 7’s Blitz. We played 4 matches altogether. We won 1, lost 2 and drew 1. 

In our first match we played Tynagh-Killeen. We drew that one. Our second game we played Leitrim. We lost that one. In our third game we played Carrabane. We lost that one. In our final match we played against Gaelscoil Riabhach. We won that one. 

We all played very well, considering we didn’t have Cillian or Ryan.

We are appealing to you, the parents to:

Fill a Box

  2.  Fill in label – who you want to give your Christmas Shoebox to and what age.
  3. Fill the box
    Get as creative as you like and have some fun with this ! – You can use our 4 W’s as a rough guide
  4. Close the box
    • Include €4 in your leaflet envelope either on top of the gifts or taped to the inside of the lid.
    • To make it easier you can
      donate your €4 on our secure on-line site.
