Our Confirmation

Hi my name is Cáit.

You might know Alex from this website already (he is my twin brother)Yesterday the 18th May we made our Confirmation. The three schools in our parish (St.Brendans N.S Newmarket, Stoneyford school and Monroe School) made it in Hugginstown Church. There were 42 pupils in all. Anne Troy was my sponsor. Every second year in our parish, 5th and 6th class make their Confirmation. Bishop Seamus Freeman is the Bishop who confirmed us. The ceremony was about an hour and a half. After the ceremony we got our pictures taken with the bishop. Our twin cousins from Stoneyford school made their Confirmation with us. We had a party at our house after the pictures. We got a bouncy slide. Alex pulled me off the slide. We kept pulling up the steps that helped you to get up to the top. When Alex was nearly at the top I pushed him back down. He got really thick with me and pushed me from the top of the slide onto the ground. We had a great day.

Schools Camogie Match

About two weeks ago we played Lisdowney in a schools camogie match. We beat them. The score was Carrickshock 3-3 Lisdowney 2-0. Cáit scored 2 goals and 3 points and Caoimhe scored 1 goal. I play full back and I stopped a couple of balls! We had to win in order to reach the semi-finals. We won one of the games and lost 2. A week ago we played Muckalee. They beat us by 7-0 to 1-1. My cousins play for them. I will never ever hear the end of it! We played that match in Railyard.
