A huge thanks to our amazing Parent’s Association for their recent Church Gate Collection Fundraiser which raised €870. The money raised was put towards a defibrillator for the school which the school also contributed to in a joint project. We are very grateful as always for the hard work and support of our Parent’s Association and of course to the continued support of our parents and widespread community. Thank you. 😊
