20 Bealtaine 2016 A HISTORIC DAY IN CROKE PARK Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille enjoyed a hugely historic day in Croke Park on Monday 20th of June. Not alone did the hurlers and camogie players reach the Cumann na mBunscol finals but both successfully returned to the school with silverware. It is a rare achievement for a school to reach a boys and girls’ finals in the one year. Add to that the cup and shield won during the football competition and Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille have won four competitions in the one school year. It is a feat that has never been achieved previously in the Cumann’s 88 year history. CORN OLLY QUILNAN – CAMOGIE FINAL The Gaelscoil’s travelling support were in fine voice even before referee Mary Boggan threw in the sliotar to signal the start of the Olly Quinlan final. From the opening minute onwards, it was clear that the girls understood the importance of a fast start. Despite conceding two soft goals in the opening half, the girls from Stepaside still lead by 1.05 at half time. Róisín Ní Chathasaigh scored 2-05 from midfield while Caoimhe Ní Ghrádaigh and Sophie Nic Aogáin scored a goal and a point a-piece respectively. There was no let off in the intensity to which the Gaelscoil began the second half and was became evident early on that there would be no way back into the final for Scoil Treasa, Firhouse. Caoimhe – remarkably only in 4th class – completed her hat-trick Róisín scored 1-02 in the second period to take her personal tally for the final to 3-07. Sophie struck the back of the net with a goal while Clodagh Nic Eochagáin pointed impressively in the concluding moments of the match. The match ended with a comprehensive 7-09 to 3.02 scoreline in favour of the Gaelscoil. Caoimhe Ní Mhathúna (Captain) agus Róisín Ní Chathasaigh (Vice-Captain) lifted the Corn Olly Quinlan on behalf of the victors. It represented the first camogie success in the history of the school which made the victory that much sweeter. Camogie Panel for the Final: 1 Róisín Nic Philib, 2 Doireann Ní Bhraonáin, 3 Caoimhe Ní Mhathúna (Captaen), 4 Ellen Nic Dhomhnaill, 5.

CORN ÁGHAIS – HURLING FINAL The hurlers competed in the Corn Aghais final against strong opposition in the form of St John Bosco from the Navan Road. The northside team contained no fewer than three current under 13 Dublin players and many were part of a recent Féile winning team from Plunkett’s GAA Club so it was clear from the onset that Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille would have to be at their very best to get anything from the game. Match referee, Tony Lennon, threw in the sliotar at 1.30pm to start what would become an absorbing battle between two teams displaying ample skill and fierce determination. The opening half finished 1-05 a-piece with Conal Ó Riain (1-01), ColmÓ Craidhn (0-03) and David Ó hAoláin (0-01) providing the scores. Team managers An Múinteoir Mac Muiris agus An Múinteoir Ó Dubhthaigh urged their stars to continue with the same intensity in the second half and their players heeded the advice and delivered by battling for every breaking ball. The 25 minutes of normal time had elapsed when the referee blew the whistle for a foul in favour of the boys from Stepaside. The scores stood level at the time at 1-10 a-piece. By now Conal had added a further four points to his opening half tally and Colm had an addition point to his name also. Word got to Colm that this would be the final play in the game and he steadied himself and heroically placed the sliotar over the centre of the crossbar to record a famous one point victory for Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille. Team Captain Seán Ó Drisceoil agus Vice Captain, Seán de Búrca – who was celebrating his birthday – were presented with the cup. Many thanks to Gearóid Ó Riain (Conal’s dad) agus Turlach Ó Meachair (Cael’s dad) for all the training and assistance with the team. It was a special day for Róisín Ní Chathasaigh who played in both games. Remarkably, she won her 9th Cumann na mBunscol football or hurling medal, which is an all-time Dublin record.

20 Bealtaine 2016 LÁ STAIRIÚIL i bPÁIRC an CHRÓCAIGH Bhí lá stairiúil ag Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille i bPáirc an Chrócaigh Dé Luain 20 Meitheamh. Ní hamháin go raibh foireann iomána agus camógaíochta na scoile ag iomaíocht i gcraobhacha Chumann na mBunscol ach d’fhill an dhá fhoireann ar an scoil le corn. Is fíor annamh go mbíonn an bua ag foireann iomána agus camógaíochta ó scoil amháin an bhliain chéanna! D’éirigh leo an éacht céanna a bhaint amach, nach mór, i rith an tséasúr peile nuair a bhuaigh peileadóirí sinsear na scoile Corn Chlanna Gael agus bhuaigh foireann na gcailíní Sciath an Chladaigh. Dá bhrí sin, bhí ceithre chomórtas Cumann na mBunscol as ceathair buaite ag Gaelscoil Thaobh na Coille laistigh den aon scoilbhliain amháin. Níor éirigh le haon scoil é sin a dhéanamh ó bunaíodh Cumann na mBunscol sa bhliain 1928. CORN OLLY QUILNAN – CRAOBH CAMÓGAÍOCHTA Bhí lucht tacaíochta na scoile le chloisteáil ón bpáirc sular chaith an réiteoir Mary Boggan an sliotar isteach le craobh Chorn Olly Quinlan a thosú ag 12.20pm. Ón gcéad nóiméad ar aghaidh bhí sé soiléar gur thuig na cailíní an tábhacht a bhain le tús láidir agus gur thuig siad plean an chluiche a bhí leagtha amach ag múinteoirí/ bainisteoirí Máirín Ní Dhubhthaigh agus Rícheal Ní Thiarnaigh dóibh. Cé gur scaoileamar isteach dhá chúl bog go leor sa chéad leath, bhíodar fós chun tosaigh le cúl agus 5 phointe ag leath ama. Bhí dhá chúl agus cúig pointe faighte ag imreoir lár páirce, Róisín Ní Chathasaigh le linn an tréimhe seo. Scóráil Caoimhe Ní Ghrádaigh cúl agus chuir Sophie Nic Aogáin pointe leis an scór freisin. 3-06 v 2-01 a bhí ann ag leath ama. Lean cailíní na scoile ag iomaíocht sa dara leath agus bhí sé soiléar nach mbeadh seans ag Scoil Treasa, Teach na Giúise, a bhealach a dhéanamh ar ais isteach sa chluiche. Chuir Caoimhe leis an cúl a fuair sí sa chéad leath le dhá chúl eile, éacht den scoth do chailín nach bhfuil ach i Rang a 4. Fuair Róisín 1-02 sa dara leath agus 3-07 san iomlán. Scóráil Sophie cúl agus fuair Clodagh Nic Eochagáin cúilín breá ag druidim le deireadh an chluiche. Chríochnaigh an cluiche leis an scór 7-09 v 3.02. Ghlac Caoimhe Ní Mhathúna (Captaen) agus Róisín Ní Chathasaigh (Leas Chaptaen) Corn Olly Quinlan ar son na scoile. Ba é an chéad uair riamh don scoil corn camógaíochta Cumann na mBunscol a bhuachaint. Painéal Camógaíochta don chraobh: 1 Róisín Nic Philib, 2 Doireann Ní Bhraonáin, 3 Caoimhe Ní Mhathúna (Captaen), 4 Ellen Nic Dhomhnaill, 5 Clodagh Nic Eochagáin, 6 Ava Ní Mhaonaigh, 7 Neasa Ní Mhathúna, 8 Róisín Ní Chathasaigh (Leas Captaen), 9 Caoimhe Ní Ghrádaigh, 10 Sophie Nic Aogáin, 11 Síofra Ní Dhonnchú, 12 Charlotte Ní Lionard, 13 Ingrid Ní Bhroin. Ionadaithe: 14 Abbie Nic Dhomhnaill, 15 Aoife Nic Cartúin, 16 Ellie Ní Chuinneagáin, 17 Rachel Ní Mhurchú, 18 Clodagh Nic Cartúin, 19 Eva Nic Daid, 20 Zoe Nic Riobáird, 21 Ruth Ní hAoláin. CORN ÁGHAIS – CRAOBH IOMÁNAÍOCHTA Ghlac painéal iomána páirt i gCraobh Chorn Ághais i gcoinne Scoil Naomh Eoin Bosco ó Bhóthar na hUaimhe. Bhí triúr d’imreoirí Bhaile Átha Cliath ag imirt dóibh agus bhí sé soiléar go mbeadh orainn imirt ar ár seacht ndícheal. Chaith na réiteoir Tony Lennon an sliotar isteach ag a 1.30pm. Cluiche den scoth a bhí ann. Chuir an dhá fhoireann tréan iarracht isteach agus bhí comhscór (1-05 v 1-05) ann ag leath ama. Is iad Conal Ó Riain (1-01), Colm Ó Craidhn (0-03) agus David Ó hAoláin (0-01) a fuair na scóranna sa chéad leath. Mhol na bainisteoirí – An Múinteoir Mac Muiris agus An Múinteoir Ó Dubhthaigh – sár-iarracht na bpáistí ag leath ama. Lean an dara leath mar a chríochnaigh an chéad leath. Bhí ard- chaighdeán go deo iomána ann agus throid an dhá fhoireann do chuile liathróid. Bhí an 25 nóiméad imeartha caite nuair a shéid an réiteoir an fheadóg do chalaís i bhfábhar na Gaelscoile. Comhscór a bhí ann (1-10 don dhá fhoireann) ag an am. Bhí Conal tar éis ceithre chúilín breise a fháil faoin am seo agus chuir Colm pointe breise leis an scór freisin. Réitigh Colm é féin don phoc saor agus chuir sé é díreach thar lár an dtrasnáin. Ba é sin scór deiridh sa chluiche. Bhí an ceann is fearr bainte amach ag foireann na Céime le pointe amháin. D’ardaigh Seán Ó Drisceoil (Captaen) agus Seán de Búrca (Leas Chaptaen) – a bhí ag ceiliúradh a bhreithlá – an corn ar son na scoile. Gabhaim buíochas le Gearóid Ó Riain (Daidí Chonail) agus Turlach Ó Meachair (Daidí Chaeil) as ucht an traenáil ar fad a rinne siad leis an bhfoireann i mbliana. Bhí an dhá chorn buaite ag an scoil agus d’imir Róisín Ní Chathasaigh sa dhá chluiche. Bhuaigh sí an 9ú bonn Chumann na mBunscol le ceithre bhliain anuas. Níl páiste ar bith sa chontae a bhuaigh níos mó boinn ná í riamh! Ní bheidh bliain mar seo ag an scoil riamh arís.
