🌞Summer is finally here (well sort of) and also the latest edition of our Newsletter!🌞
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in and supported the Niall Mac Giolla BhrĂde Festival over the weekend. It was fantastic to see our community come together to celebrate local culture, heritage and creativity.
We were also delighted to host registrations and refreshments for the MFP 5K - another successful event in aid of St Michaels Minor Board - it was lovely to see so many participants, well done to the organisers & all who took part.
Around the village, we're continuing to make improvements. The works on the Corner of the Garden steps have now been completed, however village regeneration works are ongoing.
This summer, we're excited to welcome two youth organisations who will be running weekly drop-in sessions for young people aged 10–13. We look forward to seeing our younger community members make new friends, learn new skills and enjoy the space throughout the holidays.
A special congratulations to the 6th Class students of Scoil Mhuire, whose performance of Revolting Children was truly unforgettable. Their talent and confidence lit up the stage and made everyone so proud.
While some of our regular classes and workshops will begin to wind down for the summer as people head off on holidays and enjoy a well-earned break, the work doesn't stop behind the scenes. We're already planning for the year ahead, including an exciting new chapter for the CCA, and we look forward to sharing more news on that soon.
Festival planning is also gathering pace, and we have some exciting announcements coming your way in the weeks ahead.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support, volunteer, participate and make the Community Hub such a vibrant and welcoming place for all. ❤️
