Thanks to our fantastic Parents’ Association
This morning we welcomed members of our dedicated Parents’ Association to Clontuskert. Over the past year they have organised weekly card games in the school on Thursday evenings and held an extremely successful table quiz during the Easter break.
We are so grateful for their support with all proceeds being invested into the students’ education in Clontuskert. This year the funds generated will be used to subsidise buses for the school tours, for painting the yard with games for students to play at break time and invested in ICT equipment for the students.
We would especially like to thank Stephen Scannell (Chairperson) and Elaine Bleahen (Secretary) and all of the parents who give their time to help our school and community here in St. Augustine’s NS and Clontuskert Parish.
