🎉🐦 COMPETITION TIME! 🐦🎉
Calling all children across the community!

Local woodturner Mick Murphy has created a beautiful wooden cuckoo and nest (complete with eggs! 🥚🥚🥚) and hidden it somewhere visible between the GAA pitch and Stephen’s Hill at the entrance to the village.

🔍 Can you find it?

🎁 The first *three* children who successfully find the cuckoo and send a photo 📸 of it (and the nest) to *[email protected]* will receive a small prize!

So get your walking shoes on, keep your eyes peeled, and see if you can spot Mick's wonderful creation.

Good luck everyone! 🍀😊

This week marks National Volunteering Week, and we want to give a huge shout-out and thank you to all of the Tidy Towns volunteers who give their time, energy and ideas throughout the year to help keep Kilanerin looking its best and make it a great place - and a place of pride - for all of us to live in 💚.

Volunteerism has a rich history in our village, and many of the amenities and facilities we enjoy today have been built on decades of community effort and local people stepping forward to help out.

A special mention too to all of the local groups and organisations that are powered by volunteers every single week - from school boards and sports clubs to the church, community groups and local organisations. Communities like Kilanerin simply would not function without volunteers.

Thank you to everyone who lends a hand, big or small - it all matters 🙌

Lots of work ongoing around Kilanerin as we head into May, and thankfully the nicer weather is helping us make good progress ☀️🌱

Recent weeks have seen:

* General clean-up work in the village
* A major clean-up of the Kilanerin National School garden, which had become very overgrown
* Work continuing on approach roads, including Maureen Bushe’s corner
* Planters at Kilanerin Ballyfad Parish church refreshed ahead of Communion Day 🌸

A big thank you to everyone taking on projects and tidy-ups in their own areas - it all makes a huge difference and it’s great to see new people getting involved too 👏

Our group continues to meet every Friday evening at 6.30pm and we’d love to see more support and volunteers coming along.

Please come out and support if you can 🙌

Great to see more progress around Kilanerin in recent weeks 👏

Our latest projects included a major clear-out of the flowerbeds outside the Kilanerin Ballyfad Gaa pitch, along with litter picking right across the community. (Thanks again to An Taisce The National Trust for Ireland and Wexford County Council for supplies).

Litter picking is something anyone can do at any time — it’s a simple, family-friendly activity and a great way to show the next generation the importance of keeping our area clean 🌱

We’ve also started removing some of the older planters around the village - some were rotten and others beyond repair. Over the next few years, we’ll be focusing on building up in-ground planting instead.

We meet every Friday at 6.30pm, but you don’t have to commit to that - you can also take on a small project in your own time.

If you’d like to get involved, just let us know — every little bit helps!
