Trócaire

29th May 2026

Recently we were delighted to hand over the money raised from our Lenten Penny Challenge to Carmel McCartan in support of Trócaire, with over £300 raised through the generosity of our school community.

Throughout Lent, the children worked hard collecting pennies and coins, showing wonderful generosity and kindness towards others. Every contribution, no matter how small, helped make a difference. 💛

We are so proud of the effort and enthusiasm shown by all our pupils and grateful to our families for their continued support. The challenge reminded us all of the importance of helping those in need and living out the values of compassion and community during Lent.

Well done everyone! 👏✨
