St Flannan’s students climb Croagh Patrick for cancer

125 Transition Year students from St Flannan’s College and their teachers climbed Croagh Patrick today (Thursday).

In what is a fundraiser for Milford Hospice, Cahercalla Community Hopspital and Cancer Care West, staff and students are climbing the Mayo mountain on Thursday and they will be holding a bucket collection in a flag day around Ennis on Friday after returning to Co Clare.

To date an approximate €9000 has been raised and the students are well set to pass the €10,000 mark.

All TY students have been given a sponsorship card while other fundraising methods include direct donations to the school, an in-house bake sale and an in-house bucket collection. Further ventures are planned to take place in the next fortnight.
