Second Year Tráth na gCeist- Conradh na Gaeilge

The annual Tráth na gCeist Boird at Junior level organised by the Nenagh branch of Conradh na Gaeilge took place on Tuesday 17th November in the Ostán Chuirt na Mainistneach in the town. Four schools were involved with a total of 29 teams competing. The other schools were Borrisokane Community College with 4 teams, Nenagh CBS  with 8 teams, Abbey CBS Tipperary town with 12 teams and Coláiste Phobal Roscrea with 6 teams from 24 travelling students.

The competition consisted of 8 rounds of 5 questions covering a wide range of topics and including two picture rounds. The Coláiste Phobal students were all from 2nd year across the four class groups with the 6 teams comprising:

Team 1: Aine Gleeson, Eilish Gleeson, Tadhg Hogan, Melissa Rossiter.
Team 2: Simba Havatitye, Richard O Caoimh, Jade Quinlan, Caoimhe Tuohey.

Team 4 ended up with a score of 27 out of 40 and tied for 5th prize but narrowly missed out in the tie breaker.  The Bus driver was Bertier Fitzpatrick and the accompanying teacher was Mr. Duane. All students were excellent on the day and really enjoyed the experience and the stop off at Obama Plaza topped the day off.
