Well done to the group of 1st Years who raised approximately €650 for the MS-Readathon 2016. The read 97 books in total between 7th October and 7th November.

Raising just over €650 was a fantastic achievement for the 1st Years who participated in the MS-Readathon 2016. The school library is also allowed to take 10% of the monies raised to buy more books for the school. The 1st years read 97 books in total from 7th October through to 7th November. So a big clap on the back for all those who took part in this most worthy charity.
