Hard luck to our senior footballers who were beaten by Aodh Ruadh, Ballyshannon on Saturday evening on a score line of 3-08 to 0-13.

Rás Glas !
This year will mark the fourth annual 5k run the “Rás Glas “in aid of Gaelscoil Bhun Cranncha. Ras Glas will be held on 16th April 2016 in Buncrana. It aims to raise much needed funds for a local school.
The format is very straight forward. Teams are made up of four members, and they can be a mix of staff, family and friends. The best three times are added up. A business can enter as many teams as they like and each team cost €35.00 to enter. There will also be a lovely presentation of the winning teams’ trophy taking place at the Plaza at 3pm that day by a very special guest with full local media coverage. As a thank you for your support every team will receive a 7×5 team picture in a black and silver mount.
All we ask if possible, is that everyone taking part wear green, they can promote your business by wearing your businesses name or logo if you wish.
If you and organisation would like to show your support for our school we would be extremely grateful. This year’s event promises to be our best yet and we would love you to be a part of it.
