Bake Sale for Haiti

January 29th, 2010

The pupils in 5th & 6th class, having been moved by the news reports from Haiti in recent days, decided that they would do their part to help the unfortunate victims of the terrible earthquake in Haiti. On Jan. 28th the senior pupils organised a very successful Bake Sale and Raffle to raise funds for this worthy cause.
On that day the children invited all of the pupils, staff and parents to their classroom where they had organised stalls selling all sorts of delicious cakes and buns.
The highlight of the day was a raffle for a beautiful Gingerbread House created by Mrs. Toye. The lucky winner was little Julia Shepherd from Bettystown.
The 5th & 6th class children would like to thank everyone who made the day such a success. They are especially grateful to all those who baked cakes and buns for the sale and of course all of the generous customers.
Overall a total of €846.15 was raised.

Congratulations and well done to everyone involved.
