They played five games in the week one every day at half-past twelve. On Monday was football playing. The master called two teams one teams was big boys and they would have a big football. The other team was small boy and they would have a small football.
On Tueday was a running competion from Woodpole to Ballyhist and form Ballyhish to Virinia road station. Jim Mc Bride was the fox. When he would let a bark he would run off and the other after him. The master had to stop this game as the boy didnt come back to school that day.
