🎃 Halloween Party Fun in Portpatrick! 🎃
On Thursday 30th October, pupils from St Joseph’s and our partner school Portpatrick Primary came together in Portpatrick for a fantastic joint Halloween Party, organised by Donna Westbrook and the Portpatrick Community Development Trust (PCDT). 👻✨
There was a brilliant turnout from both schools, and the children had an absolute blast! 🎉
Everyone enjoyed hot dogs, snacks, games, music and laughter. From apple bobbing to the hilarious “eat the doughnut with only your mouth” challenge, the hall was full of smiles and giggles all night long! 🍏🍩🎶
It was wonderful to see our two schools celebrating together and having so much fun.
A huge thank you to Donna and the PCDT for organising such a brilliant event and for all they do to support our schools and community. 💛
