Summer : By Sean
The hurling is finished and all the hurlers are resting for the All Ireland Finals in September. But for the young people, they will miss it but they will be looking forward to starting again soon.
This year, I went to Spain and I had a great time. We went to a place called Portadventura. It had a theme park and a water park. It was really good. Then we went on the jeep safari. It was where we went up to the top of a mountain and we had a few stops on the way up and when we were going down, they put on the four wheel drive and we went really fast down and it was really bumpy and we all got water guns to squirt people in the other jeeps. It was really fun.
This year, we have a new teacher. Her name is Ms.Aisling Corless and she is teaching Junior and Senior Infants. We have two new prefabs, 1st, 2nd & 3rd class are taught in one and Ms.Kelly uses the other one.
The Kinvara U11 Hurling team got a bronze back from Mosney. We lost the first match against a team from Cork called Douglas and beat a team called Faughan that Sunday. We got the medals and we were very happy with what we got. Also, Rory Cullinane and P.J. Kelly also from Kinvara, were competing in the long jump and 100m sprint. We left to go home on Monday.
The All Ireland quarter finals and semi finals were all great matches. Galway U21 beat Cork in the All Ireland semi final and are playing Dublin in the All Ireland. I will be going to see that match and I am very excited because the whole U11 team are going on a bus. I enjoyed my summer a lot.
