Cause

We are very limited on space in our school. We are very fortunate to have a large green space, but the space is not used or fit for purpose in the school. We are planning to install a new state of Astroturf field, complete with a hockey pitch, athletic track and games on our school grounds. This capital project will:

• empower our girls through sports.
• broaden the variety of sports available to our students.
• create an outdoor sensory space for our students.
• establish an athletic track and athletic walking trail.
• increase our yard space in the school.
• promote health and wellbeing within our students and wider community.

Response

We are fundraising for a new Astroturf field. This new astroturf field will provide a safe, durable, and low-maintenance surface for our children to enjoy various sports and recreational activities. It will not only promote physical fitness but also foster a sense of teamwork, discipline, and school spirit among our students. The field will be a fantastic addition to our school, benefiting both current students and future generations.

Projects

  1. State-of-the-art running track installation: The project will create an all-weather running track surrounding the pitch, allowing students to engage in athletic activities like running, jogging, and walking throughout the year.

  2. Multi-sport pitch development: The initiative will install a versatile pitch designed for various sports, including hockey, tennis, GAA, soccer, rugby, and athletic events, expanding the range of sports available to students.

  3. Enhanced outdoor space for student well-being: The project will provide a large, all-weather outdoor area where students can relax, play, and socialize, promoting their overall well-being during and after school hours.
