SCOIL MHUIRE GIRLS BOARD THE LORD NELSON 11th May, 2010.
The Gaelic Version
Dia Dhuit gact duine! Taimuid go leir anseo Lord Nelson. Ta atmasfear leictreach agus a lan craic ann! Inniu, d'fhagamar Weymouth
agus thosaimor aga seoltoireacht go dti Chrerbourg. Biomar aga obair go dian dicheallach ach anois taimid tuirseach traocht! Casamar amach
trasna an dtaobh mar bhi na dunta comh garbh sin ach beidh biseach orainn amarach nuair a scriocfamid An Fhrainc! Ta muid ar bhuin na muice!
Sla le gra o na cailini Eireannach ar Lord Nelson.
The "RATHER" English translation.
Greetings! Today we find ouselves upon the good ship, the Lord Nelson. The ambiance on board is quite simply spiffing and there is rather
jolly good time to be had by all. We took our leave from Weymouth on the forenoon, and made passage with an eye for landfall in Cherbourg on the
morrow. We're applying ourselves with aplomb, and hitherto where we were full of the pomp and vigour of the day, we retired to our bed chambers to
indulge in listless recumbency. Having briefly engaged in the temporary redecoration of the vessel's freeboard, one is optimistic that conditions
within the Dukedom of Normandy will assuage our affliction. Having reached the vertebral zenith of the porcine entity, we absolutely wholeheartedly
do indeed concur that all is well.
Indubitably, the fair maidens of the Emerald Isle.
In other words....
Set sail from Weymouth, puked, slept, puked some more, pulled rope, ate, survived, hope to arrive France tommorow.
The Irish Girls (A.K.A. De Mots)

Scoil Mhuire, Trims, Junior Football players made history for their school by competing in their 1st All Ireland Junior Football schools final in St. Ryanagh's GAA grounds Banagher, Co. Offaly on Saturday 24th April. The nervous bunch of Trim girls lined out at 5 pm to the opposition of Colaiste, Choilm, Ballincollig, Co. Cork. The Cork girls opened the scoring with an early point and goal, but following 2 strong attacks and a resulting 2 goals from Laura Dempsey, the Trim girls settled and they went in at half time a point up 2-4 to 2-3.
The Ballincollig team came out fighting in the second half, demonstrating speed and strength which the Trim girls found difficult to contain. With 10 minutes to go Scoil Mhuire were down by 7 points, but their fighting spirit that brought them to the final, kept them focused and they brought the score line back within the 2 points. However it was not to be for Scoil Mhuire, with Ballincollig accelerating in the last few minutes to finish on top by a goal and a point. The final score of the match Trim 3-9, Ballincollig 5-7.
Although, this was not the result we would have preferred we are thrilled for Laura Dempsey who received player of the match
Also, Management, Staff and Parents are extremely proud of the Junior Football panels achievement on this "Roller Coaster of a journey" to the All Ireland Football Final.
The Support from the school on the day and in the week prior to the match was phenomenal.

SCOIL MHUIRE ARE CHAMPIONS OF LEINSTER!!!!!!!!!!! |
Leinster Schools Junior Football Final
The Junior Footballers of Scoil Mhuire Trim became champions of Leinster on Monday 12th April, following a dramatic final against Castleknock C.C. At a sunny Dunshaughlin GAA grounds Castleknock started well by scoring a goal within the first two minutes. However, as the half progressed the Trim girls gained the upperhand and despite missing many chances, went in at half time leading 4-2 to 2-4.
Early in the second half Scoil Mhuire scored a goal to lead by 7 points, and seemed on the way to an easy victory. But Castleknock had other ideas and fought back strongly to take a 2 point leas as the game entered its final minute.
The referee signalled “one minute of injury time”, it was now or never for Trim. Hayley Kennedy took a kick out to Laura Dempsey who surged up the field beating tackle after tackle until she was pulled down 20 metres from the C.C. goals. Aoiffe Flynn reacted instantly and took a quick free to Deirdre Moroney (how did our centre-half back get to the edge of the square?) who blasted the ball in the Castleknock net.
TRIM WERE AHEAD!
KICK OUT – WHISTLE BLOWS – GAME OVER!
SCOIL MHUIRE ARE CHAMPIONS OF LEINSTER!!!!!!!!!!!
Cliona Murray accepted the Leinster trophy on behalf of a jubilant Trim team, who also had player of the match in Laura Bagnall.
