News from Longford schools: Mercy School Ballymahon extremely proud of their students


From the Leinster Final to soccer success, the school has been showing its best skills in competitions
Leinster Final Incoming for our Camogie Team
A huge well done to our U16 Camogie team on their huge win over Tullow Community School on Tuesday, 24th February.
The girls showed great skill and determination from start to finish, with an impressive final scoreline of 3-10 to 0-3. Our school community are very proud of how well this team have progressed, especially as this year marked the return of competitive camogie to our school after a long absence.
The girls now progress to play Maynooth Community College in the Leinster Final. We wish them every success in their next game!
A big thank you to their coaches Ms McNerney and Ms Moran for their dedication to the team.

We are very proud of how the teams represented our school community at both events, not only demonstrating their ability but also their team work, good humour, and friendships made throughout their time in Mercy Ballymahon. For our 6th year students on both teams, this was the final time for them to wear the Mercy Ballymahon jersey.
We are immensely proud of the excellent ambassadors they have been for our school community over the past six years.
