THE entire student body at Gaelcholáiste Chiarraí were joined by their teachers for a 5k fun run during the school’s Seachtain na Gaeilge celebrations.

While some wore green to mark the upcoming national holiday, they had to cover up with jackets as the heavens opened while they made their way around the Town Park.

It was part of the Seachtain na Gaeilge events to celebrate our Irish language and culture, but they have had to be curtailed a bit because of the Coronavirus precautions. It was also to encourage students to get some exercise and fresh air. Scroll down for photos…
