We must say a big thank you to Brian from the Carlow Tennis Club, Ciara and her team from SETU Carlow and Colm from Birmingham City Football Club for coming in and showing us their skills.

Our first Carlow Educate Together National School Bike Bus went really well this morning. We collected children from different points across Carlow Town as we went and enjoyed our active start to the day.
If you and/or your child would like to take part in the next Bike Bus we are looking for adult volunteers to help out occasionally. Please contact mark@carloweducatetogether.ie if you are in a position to do this.
Thanks again to County Carlow Sports Partnership who helped enable this to happen.

We had a great Bike Week 2023 and there were a huge amount of kids taking part in different activities over the week. Thanks to County Carlow Sports Partnership for the generous funding and to Jason from Cycling Safety for the lessons for the 5th classes leading up to our cycle down the Barrow. The infant classes and integration classes were practicing all week in the school grounds and we have a lot of newly independent cyclists with no stabilisers.
It was great to see the bike racks and the Geodome (the fanciest bike storage area in the country) full of bikes all week.
On Monday 22nd our school is going to trial it's first ever Bike Bus for the 4th - 6th class children. The Bike Bus will be run by parents and teacher volunteers and collect children on their bikes all across Carlow town on the way to school. This is a great start to Active Week which runs all next week.
