Special Olympics Athletics at St. Anne’s School

In April 2025, our athletics team travelled to Castleisland for their first competition of the year. It was an exciting and memorable day, filled with energy, encouragement, and excellent performances from all our athletes.
We are incredibly proud of how our pupils represented St. Anne’s — showing determination, enthusiasm, and fantastic sportsmanship throughout the day.

At St. Anne’s School, our pupils look forward to Special Olympics athletics training every Friday. These sessions are more than just sport — they are an opportunity for pupils to build confidence, improve their fitness, develop teamwork skills, and, most importantly, have fun in a supportive and inclusive environment.

A heartfelt thank you goes to our dedicated staff coaches, whose hard work, enthusiasm, and commitment make these opportunities possible. Through their guidance and encouragement, they help our athletes to believe in themselves, set goals, and achieve personal bests — both on and off the track.
