Jersey Day fun at Moville school 06.10.08
The principal of a
primary school in Moville turned a blind eye on
Friday when the children came in without their
uniforms.
The pupils of Gaelscoil Cois Feabhail wore football
jerseys into class to raise money for Irish charity
GOAL, which works across Africa, Asia and Central
America. |

Principal Alicia Nic
Earáin explained that for Jersey Day the children
were encouraged to wear a football jersey of any
sort to school. "We asked that each child make a
contribution to this very worthwhile charity. Jersey
Day is celebrated in schools and businesses alike
throughout Ireland to raise funds for GOAL," she
said. Gaelscoil Cois Feabhail is situated in the
grounds of Moville GAA club and was first
established in September 2001, with an intake of 13
pupils.
“We have now grown to a school of 87 children and
are going from strength to strength. However we want
to play our part not just in our local community but
also in the wider global community too," added
Alicia.
