In Divine Word we have a very active Parents' Association, headed by the Chairperson, Orlagh O’Brien. This is a voluntary group of parents within the school who dedicate their time and talents to organise many fundraisers for the school. A main source of fundraising comes from the after school classes that the children attend. A huge thank you to John and Peter, from the P.A. for their hard work and organisational skills in ensuring all the clubs are run efficiently. A lot of the work done by the P.A. is done quietly behind the scenes. This work, unquestionably, is integral to the school’s success. The Golf Classic in May 2022 raised a lot of money. This went towards the upgrading of the inner courtyard, in fabulous bright colours, to be used as an outdoor classroom. Without the help of all our parents' kind generosity, we wouldn't be able to give back so much to the school. If any other parents are interested in getting more involved, please contact Orlagh directly or speak to the school secretary, who can pass on the details.
