The North Presentation Primary School community launched their fundraising drive to raise €35,000, to provide the children with the yard of their dreams.
The children created an aerial shot of leprechauns filling the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Funds raised will be used to cover the existing tarmac yard with a surface of synthetic coloured grass. This covering will incorporate a pitch with a running track around the perimeter. It will provide a soft, safe play surface for the children – shock absorbing & non-slip. It will also result in a safe athletics track and pitch for all team sports. You can see a sample of the yard surface while standing on Gerald Griffin St. and looking into our yard.
Today alone we raised €850 from the generous donations of parents and community groups.
The staff, pupils and Parents’ Association are hopeful that over the course of the next 12 months they can, together, raise this money. Now we need your help to spread the word of our commitment to getting the Yard At The End Of The Rainbow. Please help us to tell the people of Cork about our quest.
