Virtual visit from Olympian!

By Teacher

We were delighted to virtually welcome Irish Olympian Thomas Maloney Westgaard. Thomas has represented Ireland at the Olympic Games and we were very excited to meet him online. Thomas, who has links to Dunmore, Co. Galway, spoke about his love for cross country skiing, his training and many other aspects. We enjoyed hearing his story, the games he played with us but in particularly the question and answer session. Thanks for joining us Thomas!
