IT’S been a long time coming, but a couple of years of fundraising came to fruition for CBS The Green this week with the opening of their all-weather pitch.

Principal of the school, Ms. Anne O’Callaghan, would like to sincerely thank all the sponsors who donated generously to this fine pitch, that will cater for all kinds of sports training , including  football , soccer, tag rugby, athletics and hurling and more.

It is equipped with lighting for evening and night usage and the pitch will also be available for hire to outside groups. With the footballers reached the Corn Uí Mhuirí semi-final, it’s certainly been a great week for the school. Scroll down for photos…
