INDOOR NURSERY - Our indoor nursery returns on Saturday 2nd March at 10am and takes place every Saturday morning in the Craanford Indoor Sports Complex from 10am-11am.

The aim of the nursery is to introduce all children (aged 4-6) to Gaelic games in a relaxed and fun way, with a focus on the ABCs (Agility, Balance and Coordinati­on) - these skills are relevant for any sport, not just GAA. But more importantl­y the nursery is about having fun and making new friends every Saturday morning in our fantastic indoor facilities.

The Craanford parish runs south from Knocknagap­ple Woods on the Wicklow border, in past P&H Doyle’s Service station on the outskirts of Gorey and over to Creagh.

All children in the surroundin­g areas of Kilnahue, Coolishall, Creagh, Rossminogu­e, Craanford, Monaseed and Hollyfort are very welcome to attend, especially families that are new to the area, children that don’t attend school/playschool in Craanford/ Monaseed or children who have never been to the nursery before. All equipment is supplied so all you need to bring is some water!
