Holywood Hullabaloo

The Head teacher and I took all the toys that were left over from gala day to the charity shop called Lift D & G – Community Exchange. Thanks to all the people who gave us  toys for Gala Day at Holywood School. You helped us to raise money and now you are helping the local community too!!
