Christmas Fundraisers
?? The Bronntanas Appeal Committee recruit volunteers every year to buy a gift for children in need in Mayo. This year 3rd year 1 collected money, were matched with three children and donated presents to them.
A very successful hot chocolate morning was also hosted by Ms. Keane and €628 was raised for the Claremorris Red Cross. Ms. Keane is also helping with the Claremorris Red Cross Food appeal and students donated lots of food to this worthy cause.
