We were delighted to win the School/Club category at the Clonaslee Parade on St. Patrick's Day.  Well done to all who took part in a very enjoyable parade and to the pupils and  committee of parents  who brought it all together.

Flora and Fauna of the Sliabh Bloom Area

We had the pleasure of working with artist Mary Slevin,  Mount Henry  Art Studio, Killinard recently as part of the BLAST programme.

We thoroughly enjoyed the process and now have the final products, of which we are very proud, on display outside.

Have a look at the lovely video  which Mary put together for us and next time you are passing us from the Birr side, you will catch a glimpse of the beautiful flora and fauna of the Sliabh Blooms.
