On Saturday 30^th of January in the Castle Hotel, two quiz teams from Rusheen N.S. competed in the Credit Union Quiz.  There were over 40 teams all trying to win first place.  The 40 teams were put into two catagories,  Under-11’s and under-13’s.  In the Under-11’s, Kilnamartyra came first and went through to the next round.  While our own team came in a brilliant 3^rd place.  In the Under-13’s, Tirelton came first while our own under-13 team came a very good 5^th place.  The under-11 team was made up of 4 people:  Rachel Kelleher, Robbie Cunningham, Moira Leahy and Noah O’Leary.  There were also four people in the under-13 team:  Èireann O’Shea,  David Kelleher, Dylan O’Riordan and Niamh White.  Here are a couple of questions from the quiz.
