We would like to take this opportunity to thank the following people who helped make our golf scramble a success. We were reasonably fortunate with the weather for our 2016 golf fundraiser in Tulfarris, 25 teams took part on the day. A lot of work goes into the organisation of the day and we are grateful to all who contributed in any way. Please take the time to read through our list of tee box and prize sponsors, and support them over the coming year.
We will publish where the monies have been used to help better the school experience for our pupils before next year’s event.

Teams | € 1,615 |
Tee Boxes | € 5,150 |
