WEIGHTS & FITNESS ROOM

The sporting facilities available to the pupils of Terenure College are looked upon with envy by pupils from other schools and also by our own past-pupils.

The most recent additions, the weights-room with adjoining astro-turf areas incorporating running-tracks, long-jump zone, all-weather scrummage and line-out area, golf-mats and internal cricket-nets are very impressive by any standards.

Open since May 1999, the weights-room bids fair to be the best-equipped School Gym in the country. Holding some of the latest and most innovative equipment along with a vast amount of Olympic standard weight-lifting bars and plates it is open to all pupils from 4th Year upwards every lunchtime.

Complementing this nicely is the astro-turf where touch-rugby is played daily by teams from 4th, 5th and 6th Years.

Both areas are used extensively by players from the Rugby Club, another aspect of the current plan to maximise the use of all resources within the School/Club Campus.
