Sport forms a very important  part of our school  culture  here In Scoil Mhuire Lacken.  We are extremely lucky to have  links  with our  local GAA  Club and to have volunteers from  the club to help  out in  coaching the  children each week. Many thanks to  Brian Mc Kiernan  who  visits  our school every Thursday to  coach  us  in  GAA skills and to Helena Brady  who coaches third to  sixth  class every Friday in Camogie/Hurling.
Sport is a vital component of providing  positivity in mental health and provides an escapism from the  curricular areas of  Primary School and  develops  children  Socially,  Emotionally,  Educationally and Physically. . Here  in the  school we  support and  provide sport in  three areas: 

 (1) Physical  Education-  in  terms of our Primary School  Curriculum 

 (2) Extra-  Curricular  Activities e.g Biking to School, Daily Mile, GAA 5  Star  flag,  Basketball 
 (3) Encouragement to participate in  local  GAA activities.
