St.Colman's Blitz
Picture
Picture
Last Thursday 26th September, a bus of 15 excited boys headed

off to take part in the St. Colman’s hurling Blitz. This is an

annual event which is extremely well organised and well

supported by the local schools. It is definitely one of

the highlights of our school year.  In the group games we played

Ballynoe, Kilmagner and Ballyhooly. After a defeat to Ballynoe in

the opening game, the boys played their heart out and showed

some great teamwork to come out victorious against Kilmagner

and Ballyhooly. This brought us to the semi-final of the shield

competition where we played Kilworth which can only be

described as an epic game where the boys fought hard and it

was a very close competition. Our boys showed fantastic spirit

and determination, fighting for every ball running out winners in

the end bringing us to the final where we played

Castletownroche. This was a good game of hurling from our

boys and their ability to play as a team was evident as they

clocked up some lovely scores till that final whistle blew and we

had won. Every boy represented the school with great distinction

and honour and they should be very proud of their efforts as we

all are here in the school.  We would also like to say a special

thanks to Mike Walsh who has been training the boys and

coached them on the day and to Ms. Power for her help on the

day also. Special mention to the parents who, as always, were a

huge support to the boys on the day. Best of luck to the boys

who are competing in the Sciath Na Scol football Semi-final this

​week.

Farewell Canon Leamy 
The whole school came together recently to celebrate mass to mark the beginning of another school year. This mass was extra special as it was the last one that would be celebrated by our much loved Parish Priest, Canon Leamy. The children sang and read beautifully during the mass. After mass, Canon Leamy came out and the whole school community got an opportunity to thank him for all he has done for us over the years. The eldest child in each class presented Canon Leamy with a card and the Parents' Association and Board of Management also made presentations. Our Chairperson, Helen Arnold, spoke some lovely words of gratitude for Canon Leamy's time with us in Bartlemy and wished him well in his future ministry in Mitchelstown. We finished  up with Úna Finn taking some lovely photographs which you can see below. Go raibh míle maith agat Canon Leamy agus go n-éírí an t-adh leat!

another and the school. We look forward to many years of

Senior School Tour 2019
On the 24th of June 2019 3rd to 6th class went on their school

Tour to Cork city. We started the day with a visit to Lifetime Lab

where we were taught about the Old Cork Waterworks. Next up

was a visit to Cork City Gaol for a guided tour where the children

​got an insight into what life was like in the prison years ago.

After this we had lunch in McDonalds followed by some 10 pin

bowling in The Planet.


​
A very enjoyable day was had by all.

6th Class Graduation 2019
We had a very special Mass on the 27th of June 2019 for our

fantastic 6th class pupils as they graduated from Bishop O’Brien

National School.



The mass was celebrated beautifully by Canon Leamy and was

attended by the 6th class pupils, their families and friends,

members of the community and the other children of the school

who formed the wonderful choir.

​

We wish all the pupils every success and happiness as they

move on to the next exciting stage of their educational journey.



Slán go fóill rang a sé agus tá súil againn go bhfeicimid sibh arís

sa todhchaí!
