Parents Association Waterbus Trip

Our Parents Association organised a fundraising Waterbus Trip as part of our ongoing efforts to raise money to complete our new artificial playground at the school. Thomas McHugh of the sensational group Onóir very kindly came along to provide some music, and a great time was had by all. Our thanks to Thomas for his kind gesture; to our fantastic Parents Association for their organising of the trip, and to all the people who purchased tickets and came along on the day.
