St.
Brendan’s College, Buenos Aires, Argentina
50th
Anniversary Hockey Tour September 2016.
On Friday September 9th
Villiers School hosted a visiting girl’s hockey team from St. Brendan’s
College, Buenos Aires, Argentina. They were visiting Limerick as part of their
school’s 50th anniversary tour and also to honour the founder of
their school, Mr. John Joseph Scanlan, a native of Limerick city.
Villiers Senior Girls’ Hockey Team
played an international challenge match against St. Brendan’s on Saturday
September 10th at 1pm in what was a very exciting game. Afterwards both teams enjoyed
refreshments on the lawn of Derravoher House and coaches and players had a
chance to swop cross-cultural hockey notes!
We are delighted to develop links
with an Argentinian school with similarities to our own school. Sincere thank
you to all the parents who hosted the girls in their homes over the weekend.
