Well done to all the pupils from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th class in Gaelscoile Colmcille who knitted a square each to make up these fabulous blankets which were donated to Heart Children Ireland and Crumlin Children’s Hospital. Each child undergoing a heart operation receives a blanket and 10 operations are carried out each week. Well done to all the children.
