NEWS & EVENTS- MARCH 8TH

Flag Day
We had a fantastic response to Flag Day last Saturday and raised the princely sum of €2,930. Sincere thanks to the Parents Association who worked so hard to organise this under the direction of Cynthia Doyle. A sincere thanks to all the parents who gave their time on Saturday to man the collection points and a very big thank you to all who contributed to the collection. 16 I-Pads have been purchased for the classes and the children are really enjoying using them. (See picture below) A huge míle buíochas to past and present Parents Association who worked tirelessly in their fundraising efforts to make this possible.
