The Sam Maguire Cup is coming to Powerstown ETNS on Monday 30th November 2015 at around 11am. We are super excited to meet Ciarán Kilkenny and the cup.

Children are invited to come to school wearing their Dublin jerseys, (or wearing blue clothes), blue face paints and bring their Dublin flags, to “paint the school Blue” to mark this special occassion.
