Millstreet Primary Schools Parents Association Draw

Millstreet Primary Schools Parents Association are running a 50/50 draw which went live just before the summer. The main drive behind this initiative is to raise money for our two local primary schools here in Millstreet.

It is one ticket for €5 euro or three for €10 euro.

There will be one winner who will take away 50% of the jackpot, with the other 50% being donated to the two schools.

https://www.lottoraiser.ie/Millstreet

Please spread the word to as many people as you can. The jackpot increases with each ticket sold.

The draw will run until September 19th and we hope to do something that day to mark the draw and announce the winner.

Thanks again to everyone for your support. As always it is greatly appreciated.

Kevin Brennan Memorial Chess Cup

Millstreet Community School was delighted to welcome former pupil Stefan Brennan. Stefan presented the inaugural Kevin Brennan Memorial Cup for the MCS chess champion, which commemorates his Uncle Kevin. Kevin was a dedicated teacher who helped his students thrive in school. He also ran a chess club and made every effort to ensure all students were included in school life.
Tournament winner Yaseen Mukhammed edged the victory over Aaron Bourke in a gripping contest, with Abdul Raheem and Oleksii Shemshur in third and fourth places.
Stefan also shared his extraordinary career path in acting with the students and described his current role in New York acting in ‘King Lear’.  He encouraged students to work hard on their chosen path and to be courageous and choose an area of study they enjoy. Stefan is a graduate of UCC and the prestigious RADA acting academy.  We wish him continued success on stage and screen.
