Big Crowds at Art Exhibition

DOUBLE CLICK on a shot for a film strip

Several hundred kids, parents, family members, friends and teachers attended the Art Exhibition in the school on April 25th and there was a real buzz about the event as can be seen from the shots below. The Exhibition was opened by Anthony Murnane of RTE News fame (above). So far, several hundred paintings have been sold and the remainder are still available in the school. We will update later with the final figure raised from picture sales and from the raffle – we are still toting up sales and costs. The funds will to be put towards School Spring Clean.

The school also celebrated the 50^th anniversary since its founding in the 1961-62 school year with amalgamation of three smaller schools in the area. Thanks to Jane Muhli for a scrumptious and popular cake!

Thanks also to all the parents and teachers who helped with the event, the parents who donated prizes , and Ms Kelly, Mr. Halligan, Mr. Hackett for their paintings.

We are delighted to announce an exhibition of your children’s art!

All pictures will be professionally framed and catalogued for display in ‘our’ very own Art Gallery.

Refreshments will be served at the main event on Wednesday 25^th April from 6-9pm and also a Raffle will take place

As well as a great artistic event, this is an important fundraiser to help pay for a School Spring Clean.

The pictures can be purchased for €12.00 each.

(A family discount will be available to those with 3 or more children taking part.)

Framed print copies of the originals will also be available to order. The perfect gift!

The exhibition is also open during school pick up times on the 25th and 26th April.

If you can’t make it in person, but would like to have your child’s picture, just send in your payment before the exhibition day and we will arrange delivery.

Art is essential in your children’s lives. As your children have taken great pride in their artwork for this event, why not bring your family and friends (and camera) and make it an occasion to remember.
