Today a photographer from the local newspaper, Bray People, came into our school to take some pictures of our YSI group! Since September 2016 we have raised over 950 euros for Homelink, and we plan to raise even more throughout 2017. Therefore to celebrate this achievement Bray People wanted to write an article written about St Gerard's YSI group all the things we have done to help our community and in particular Homelink. In addition two members from Homelink came to our school to feature in the photograph too.
At 3 o'clock today you could find almost all of the YSI members (unfortunately a few people were not able to be there), Mr Geraghty and the two Homelink members in the school library posing for a photograph! I was too small to stand in the back row so I was asked to sit down in a chair, which was fine by me! I am so glad to be part of YSI, it is truely a fantastic programme to participate in and it is great to be innovative and help our community as best we can. I am definitely enjoying the experience! Below is an image of the photo taken:
