The morning of Wednesday, 20th December saw the school community of St Mary’s hold our annual Christmas Fund-Raising Draw, just prior to the Christmas break.
On behalf of our entire school, a most sincere word of thanks and appreciation is extended to our local businesses, families, friends and staff members, for sponsorship of a wide range of wonderful prizes, and many generous financial donations. The generosity which we have always received from our many sponsors and supporters of our school is exceptional, and we thank all most sincerely for their continued support at Christmas 2023. (Individual letters of thanks and acknowledgement will be issued re same in the time ahead.)
We greatly appreciate the tremendous support of our parents, families, staff, Board of Governors and wider community, in relation to this Draw, too, through the purchase of tickets. Thank you to our students, staff, families and BoG members, for a most admirable collective effort in selling/purchasing tickets for the Draw in these more financially challenging times.
Thank you to Mrs Clarke in our school office for all her efforts in ensuring that all monies and donations were graciously received and methodically counted and collated.
A wonderful final total of £4,027.00 and €200.00 was realised. Please know that these funds will go towards supporting our children in the weeks and months ahead via a variety of resources, participation in a number of programmes, payment for buses to travel to sporting competitions, etc.
