In the days coming up to Daffodil Day the boys and girls from Mr Kilgannon's Senior Infants worked really hard to pick and collect all the Daffodils that had been growing around the school. With the help of some 6th class girls we sold them to parents and friends on Daffodil Day and collected €304. This is a picture of us presenting a cheque to Joanne from The Irish Cancer Society. Great Job Team !!!
