Congratulations – To the boys’ soccer team and their coach Mr Bogle, who nearly lost his coaching role after a recent spate of heavy defeats but won the 7-a-side competition at the Vale Centre yesterday, defeating Drumachose 1-0 in the final, to bring home the silverware. The girl’s soccer team came runners up after being defeated by a solitary goal in the final against Drumachose Primary School. A great day out for all. Thanks to Faughanvale Primary School for hosting the tournament.
School Disco – Thanks to the Parents & Friends’ Association and staff for organising and attending the ‘Easter Disco’ on Saturday 23rd March, a special word of thanks to those parents who volunteered for the first time.
