The Barn Dance which was run by the Parents’ Association was held on Sat 20th May in the Hopper Inn. A very enjoyable night was had by all and it was a great opportunity to meet and socialize with other parents.
Many thanks to all those who bought tickets, sold tickets or attended on the night for their support. A profit of €3300 was made which will benefit every child in the school.
The money collected will go towards the following:
- Purchase of new sports equipment
- Lining the basketball court
