As part of their Confirmation preparation the sixth class
pupils committed to a fundraising project to promote awareness and support for a
worthy cause. The girls in sixth class decided that they would arrange and host
some school events to fundraise for "The
Nepal Earthquake Appeal" .
On May 22nd they organised a Bake Sale,
along with a range of stall activities such as nail-painting, jumble sale,
guess-the number-of sweets-in-the-jar, Mucky-Ducks, dressing-up and
guess-the-wolf's-name. The whole
school participated in the fun, and generously purchased cakes and other treats.
While the sixth class pupils did all the hard work, many families put in a huge
effort to bake the cakes and deliver them freshly to the school. The event was a
huge success thanks to everybody who got involved.
In total, €1,408
was raised in one day for this very worthy charity.
