John Lonergan at St.Brendan’s NS, Rathcoole
An inspirational and surprisingly entertaining (sic!) night was had by about 60 parents who arrived on Thursday last at St Brendan’s National School, Rathcoole to listen to a talk by John Lonergan and Caroline Crotty.
John, who was governor of Mountjoy Prison for 24 years, and Caroline, a psychology counselor for teens and adults, gave a refreshing and honest talk titled “Parenting – the challenges and the rewards.”
Both parents themselves, they gave sound advice on many challenges today’s parents face: social media related risks, drugs, peer pressure.
They also focused on simple and wonderful joys parenthood brings. After all you only need two measures to check your children against: health and happiness.
The views they shared were simple and yet so witty and true. They held their audience captivated for the whole time. Serious nods from the parents mixed with outbursts of laughter at real life anecdotes.
Millstreet Parents Association Update
As mentioned at the end of the school term in June, Millstreet Parents Association were pleased to announce that through the fundraising and generosity of Millstreet parents and companies we had raised €2000 for each primary school.
This week, the committee met with Joan O’Mahony, principle of Millstreet Presentation National School, and presented the school with the €2000 cheque. The money will be used to assist in the completion of the new basketball court in the girls school.
We also have a €2000 cheque for Scoil Mhuire National School to be presented later this week.
Many thanks again to all the local business groups and parents for assisting in the fundraising for both schools. – Rose Murphy, Anneka Dunne, Claire McCarthy, Sheila Lane.
