Millstreet Community School students attend SVP Youth for Justice Exhibition

Eleven Transition Years from Millstreet Community School attended the SVP Youth for Justice Exhibition in Rochestown Park Hotel, Cork on 30th April. Youth for Justice is an initiative to encourage students to get more involved in their school and local community. Our students organised three very successful events during the year:

1. Bake Sale in aid of the Marie Keating Foundation in October 2014 which raised €687.22

2. An Intergenerational Christmas Table Quiz in December 2015

3. Cluichi agus Ceol! An afternoon of games and music involving adults and the TY students in March 2015

Over four hundred students attended from schools all over Cork. Each set up a display and gave a presentation to everyone present about what was achieved during the year.

Tubrid Holy Well

Today is the start of May, the month known as the month of Mary. As is traditional, many people from near and far join in with their families and friends to come to Tubrid Well to pray the Rosary.

This morning (May 1st) there will be a Rosary and May Day Celebration hosted by our Active Retired Group. The Holy Rosary will be recited there every evening at 8pm this month, and all are welcome.
