I.T Tralee Students
We are very lucky to have the expertise of I.T Tralee students teaching our students P.E for the last number of years. During this P.E lesson children were playing co-operative games while working on their balancing skills at the same time. A big hit with this class.
Junior Park Run on Sundays
We encourage our pupils to run on Sundays (2km). Some of the Seniors run the Park Run on Saturdays (5km). W have close ties with the Junior Park Run, as one of our parents is the main organiser and set up the Tralee Jun Run over 3 years ago. The fourth such Jun Park Run in the country, at the time. It is hugely popular with local schools.

He is a regular visitor to our school on Active Week and he is closely linked to Caherleaheen P. Assoc . He is, without doubt the funniest, bestest coach in Ireland.
