Clonegal-Kildavin

CLONEGAL NS

Each year the school organises a 5-Week Raffle to raise funds for school resources. The Capitation Grant paid to schools by the Department of Education just about covers items such as heating, light, insurance, etc. The Teaching Resources needed for your children, are, for the most part, paid for by the proceeds of this raffle.

This year the raffle will take place in the weeks starting on Thursday, March 1, Friday, March 9, Friday, March 16, Friday, March 23, and Friday, April 13.

Each family is asked to sell as many lines as possible each week – €3 per line per week. There are several weekly prizes to be won. It would be very helpful if you could have the cards back on Wednesday of each week, so we can get ready for the draw.
