SCHOOL NEWS

Special Thanks to everyone who supported our school concert. €2,897 was raised in total. Well done to all the children and to all involved it was a very enjoyable night. Thank you also to everyone who supported our recent clothes collection.

First Holy Communion will take place on Saturday, April 28, next year. The school is awaiting a permit to commence a weekly splitthe-pot in an effort to purchase an iPad for the school children.

Well done to Erin and Kate Doyle, who won two iPads for the school recently, a fantastic start to providing the school children with access to Ipads in school. If there are any homes where Ipads, tablets or laptops are not being used the school would appreciate if they would consider donating them to the school for the children.

You can follow school activities on the Facebook page Ballyduff ns parents’ association. All support would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to everyone who supported our recent Christmas Concert and clothes collection.
