Gortnaghey P.S. Visit

St Mary’s Primary School , Gortnaghey, Co Derry visited Glenullin Resource Centre on Wednesday 18 March 2009 with their Principal, Theresa Duffy. They heard about turf cutting, time capsules, skylarks and boggy pools from Volunteer Guide, James Higgins and the James Mclaughlin, Chairman of Glenullin and Agivey Conservation and Development Group. We received wonderful thank you letters from all the children and hope to welcome them back soon!
