TY Students Training with a Champion

As part of the exciting new Transition Year programme we’re running this year, students are taking part in a martial arts and self-defence module. We’re delighted to once again link up with local business Éire Grapple in Tullamore for this initiative.

There was great interest in class this week as their coach, Shane Dunne, had just been crowned the IÚR Bantamweight Champion at the weekend and brought along his belt to show the group.

Shane’s passion and commitment to his sport is infectious, and our students are really benefitting from the chance to learn new skills and build their confidence each week.
