THE fourth and fifth class pupils at Scoil Nuachabháil have raised over €1,000 for the school selling Ballymacelligott area-themed fridge magnets.
Under the stewardship of teacher, Siobhan Curran, they created and sold the picture magnets to enter into this year’s Junior Entrepreneur Programme.
To decide what images would go on the magnets, the class conducted a survey and then decided on views of Ballymacelligott, the Ballymacelligott GAA crest and photos of the school. Around 350 fridge magnet were then made and sold by the children.
