On May 25th we had our “Road Safety Awareness Day” which marked the official launch of the “Road Safety Leaflet”. Brian Whelehan, a past pupil of the school made the official launch and many thanks to all who supported the project on the day including Cllr Tony McGloughlin, Mr. Michael Campbell(Chairman Birr Town Council), Garda Padraig Connaughton(Birr), Garda Pascal Hanafin(Tullamore) and all the parents who were very hard-working on the committee. Special thanks to Margaret Teehan(H/S Liaison) who got everything up and running and West Offaly Partnership for backing the project. The official ceremony was followed by a practical demonstration by the Gardai on Road Safety to all classes.
