Name: Gerard Hollywood
Age: 13 years
Address: Teebane, West Gortin, Co. Tyrone, Northern Ireland
Local connections with St. Joseph's High School: I was the first one
here
from my family, but my cousins came here.
I travel to school by bus. I leave my house at 8.25 am. It is 11 miles
from my house to Plumbridge. I get up at 7.45 am every morning to get ready
to go to school.
My Hobby: I am a keen Gaelic footballer. I play for Gortin Under 14'
s. We played Brocagh last Saturday (19th June) in the semi-final of the
Championship and beat them. My best place on the field is forward. There
are 13 in our team. Eight of the players go to St. Joseph's. We are in
grade 3. We train on a Wednesday night at 7.OOpm. Our managers are Kieran
Kelly and Roger Keenan who are both connected to St. Joseph's. We wear
green and yellow jumpers sponsored by F.S.L. a local company. We are looking
forward to the final against The Rock in a fortnight’s time.
When I am not playing football I spend my time helping on the farm with
my Daddy and my uncle Paddy.
I have three brothers and one sister. |
