Thank You!!!

The pupils of Liscarroll NS were busy over the past week packing shoe boxes for children less fortunate than themselves. Every year the pupils of our school respond overwhelmingly to this appeal.

A Busy June for our Health Promoting School

Liscarroll National School has had a very healthy (and delicious!) June having organised Fruity Fridays and Walk a Mile with a Smile as part of our Health Promoting Schools Membership.

All four Fruity Fridays were very kindly sponsored by Twohig’s Supervalu Kanturk who provided one piece of fruit for every child!!! A massive thank you to them from all at Liscarroll NS!

We could not have had better weather for our Walk a Mile with a Smile having the sun beating down on us as we walked to the Donkey Sanctuary and back.

And to top it all off we got our 2017-2018 Health Promoting Schools Certificate in June as well!!
