🎼Give the gift of music! Our school Music Club is currently seeking unwanted or gently used instruments. Donating that band or orchestra instrument you no longer use can make a profound difference in a child’s life. Please e-mail [email protected] or call 091 568707

These bees, which were spotted in our school garden, are loving our No Mow May campaign! The more dandelions there are, the better, especially early in the time of year when emerging bumblebee queens need food to survive on as they search for places to build their nests🐝
