Bag Packing Fundraiser: A massive thank you to Emer Tallis, our Parents Association, volunteers and staff who helped out with our bag pack at Dunnes Stores last weekend. We managed to raise a staggering €1,400 over the two days which will go a very long way in helping us to continue to develop our school and resources, thank you everyone.
The Coralstown 5K: It's nearly time to lace up those runners with the Coralstown 5k taking place next Wednesday the 29th May. This is our primary fundraiser of the year. Thank you to our school secretary Joanna and our race committee who have been working so hard to ensure everything is in order in the lead up to the event. Any help on the night is greatly appreciated, please contact Joanna in the office if you are free to help out.
