Largymore Primary School, Northern Ireland

Largymore Primary School Northern Ireland  

Today Largymore Primary School celebrated the Harvest and Thanksgiving.   Six years ago Largymore changed its thoughts for harvest. Instead of asking the children for money or food for hospitals.......it decided to harvest the common place  of the community for the luxuries of others. This year the school's aim was to focus on children in Eastern Europe and further afield.. 170 children from 130 families harvested  $2500 worth of toiletries and pharmaceuticals. Shortly the items will begin  their journeys to Romania and Jordan.   The principal, Mr. Harry Stewart commented," I continually have the utmost respect and admiration for our children and parents who envelop, support and promote the ethos of our school."
