Nurseries mark 10 years of working together

To mark the completion of another year of joint projects, more than 150 children and parents attended a fun day - staged free of charge by the schools to thank parents and children - at St. Peter’s GAA Club in Lurgan,

“The children had a selection of fun activities put on by the staff of the two schools,” said Dromore Nursery School principal Mrs. Sharon Beattie. “There were mini-coaching schools for football, Gaelic football, rugby and netball.

“The children also had the chance to go on bouncy castles, have their faces painted and be entertained to a magic show.

“Children got an ice-cream from a ‘real’ ice-cream van, a barbecue and special snack.

“Parents also had the opportunity to enjoy a coffee with sandwiches and buns while the children were entertained by a Jamaican storyteller.

“The sun shone and everyone had a great day, with every child receiving a rosette to mark their participation in the Olympic Year.”
