Newport Boys National School Parents Association is actively seeking new members. They have been working very hard throughout the year endeavouring to help the pupils and staff in the pursuit of learning. Last year they contributed over €6000 to the school (including painting the new extension, buying books for the Special Education Department and contributing to the cost of swimming and tin whistle lessons). With the growth in pupil numbers, we are appealing for as many parents as possible to get involved with the Parents Association.
Upcoming fundraising events include:
Bag Packing - on December 15th in Dunnes Stores, Childres Road. All help appreciated
Carol Singing
Christmas Concert
Cake Sale
Family Fun Day
If you have any more ideas for fundraising and/or helping the school, please contact the Parents Association at the school.
