Bring a Book Buy a Book in Beneavin De La Salle College with the Le Chéile Transition Year Group
The College had a Coffee Morning and Book Sale in the school on Friday 20th March. The event was hosted by Transition Year students and co-ordinated by the TY team of Ms O’Brien, Ms Baird and Mr Poole assisted by Laura Davis and Ann White, the administrators as well as the Parent Council. On the day the school had a Bring-a-Book, Buy-a-Book event with a wonderful coffee morning and there were lots of great books available to buy for €2.
The TY students also spent a day baking in advance of the event for the coffee morning so not only did the participants enjoy the books but also the wonderful baking of the TY students under the guidance of Ms Dempsey. The main purpose of the event was to raise money for St. Michael’s House. St. Michael’s House provides services to children and adults with intellectual disabilities. The coffee morning itself began at 9.30 and we also welcomed students from local primary schools along.
It was a wonderful community event and raised over €600. Money raised will all go to St. Michael’s House.
