Coláiste Mhuire Celebrates Successful First Annual 6K Fun Run

Colaiste Mhuire hosted our first annual 6km Fun Run on Sunday 17th May. This was a truly fantastic community event and we are so grateful to all who supported this event which will go towards ECA in the school. Participants took off on a beautiful Sunday morning and ran a course around the local area. The rain which followed never dulled spirits with many participants finishing by with fantastic times! Well done to all students and staff who took part and helped out in many ways on the day.
