ZIM DAY:
Thanks to everyone for their generosity last Friday for Zim Day. Ms. Cotter reports that there was €1,900 raised which is a wonderful achievement. Special thanks to the ‘bakers’ for all their hard work. Check our website for photos! www.ballylinannationalschool.com.
GREEN SCHOOLS:
Our ‘Green Schools’ committee visited Srowland Water Treatment Plant outside Athy yesterday and saw how much work is required to provide drinking water to our homes. Our new school has a water harvesting system providing water for our 30 toilets! This has reduced the
amount of water we use dramatically compared
to the old school.
MID-TERM:
Reminder that mid-term break will be Thursday and Friday – (Feb. 20th & 21st).
SCHOOL CALENDARS:
Due to an error at the printing stage we now have a surplus of calendars. These are available for €5 each at the school office, Centra and Murphy’s pub.
COMMUNITY NOTICE:
Ballylinan GAA Club will be introducing their new Handball Wall on Thursday 13th February @ 7 pm. with a demonstration from Laois coaches. All children
and parents are welcome to attend and be part of this
new chapter in the club.
