🎃👻 Halloween at Maghery! 👻🎃

Our young people enjoyed a fun-filled Halloween party with pumpkin carving, chocolate apples and Halloween colouring! 🎨🍎

There was plenty of laughter as everyone got involved in spooky group games, including apple bobbing and food challenges! 🕸️ We also enjoyed hot food and a visit to the tuck shop for some tasty treats. 🍬

🎙️ Wheelworks Podcast Programme 🎧

Our young people had the opportunity to visit The Market Place Theatre in Armagh for a two-day podcast boot camp with WheelWorks!

Across the two days, they explored everything that goes into creating a podcast, from communicating effectively and choosing content to planning their episodes. They also got hands-on experience setting up equipment, using the technology, recording audio and editing afterwards. 🎤💻

A brilliant opportunity to develop new skills, explore their creativity and learn how to get their voices heard. A big thank you to WheelWorks for guiding our young people through the process! 👏
