GAA 5 Star Flag

Picture
Castleplunkett NS has become on of the countries pioneering GAA 5 Star Centres. To become a GAA 5 Star Centre, Mrs Feely organises a range of activities for all children to participate in, with GAA personnel acting in a support capacity. The diverse range activities include Have a Ball, Fun & Run, Strike It, Catch & Kick, Skill Challenges and Go Games. 
​

GAA Director of Games Development and Research, Pat Daly, highlighted that “the initiative aims to ensure that every child gets 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity per week throughout 26 weeks of the school year. In doing so, it will enhance the development of children’s movement abilities and well-being so that children experience fun, friendship, fairness, freedom and, ultimately, develop their fitness.”
