300 CLUB DRAW

As you are no doubt aware, the 300 Club Draw has been a huge success for Duncannon National School, it continues to be one of the main revenue streams with regard to providing much needed funding for services and equipment for the School. The new annual 300 Club Draw tickets for 2018 are for sale now and available from the School and members of the Parents Associatio­n.

PARENTS ASSOCIATIO­N

We would also welcome as many Parents as possible at the Parents Associatio­n meetings (3-4 meeting per year) to enable us secure new ideas and fund-raising suggestion­s in the interest of the School and all the children. I’m sure you will agree it requires a communal effort from all.

Finally on behalf of the Parents Associatio­n I would like to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Peaceful New Year.

Paul Byrne, Treasurer, Duncannon National School Parents Associatio­n.
