TIRERAGH COMMUNITY SUPPORT LTD

We held our annual Easter Egg Hunt in Kilglass House on Easter Sunday. Around 300 children turned out to see the Easter Bunny, to join in the fun games in our walled garden, complete a fun treasure hunt around the 13-acre woodland and to enjoy arts and crafts, face painting and much more. Kilglass National School also did their annual bake sale on the day, making the whole event a great success. Thanks to all those who attended.
