The Connet Credit Union quiz took place on the 11th of February and started at 10:30am at the Fairways hotel, Dundalk.

There were teams submitted from lots of the local schools and we all sat on tables of 4 in the conference room.

There were two teams from St Francis, an Under 11 team and an Under 13 team.  Each team consists of 4 players. 

The quiz lasted for 3 Hours and 30 minutes, finishing at 2:00 pm after 12 rounds.  Our under 13’s team won first place and our under 11’s team got second place.

Our Under 13’s team had members Fintan Birmingham, Gerard Lynn, Sebastian Roland and Seth Connolly.

The teacher who coaches the quiz team is Mr Sheppard and he was accompanied by our principal, Mrs Lawless.

On Sunday  March 8th the under 13’s team will go to the “Chapter Level” semi-finals in Monaghan.
