Leinster Finalists
On Monday March 4th, St. Josephs had 4 teams that travelled up to Gormanstown, Co. Meath to compete in the Olympic Handball Leinster finals. Each of our teams played three matches and showed great skill and team work. A stop into Burger King on the way home was one of the highlights of the day. We look forward to competing again next year.

Well done to all classes who began their running/walking challenge on Monday. They will go outside and spend 10 minutes everyday completing laps. These will be added together to reach different places around Europe.
