Laura and Tina and all at Cavan SPCA sent this letter of thanks to the knitting club along with these two pictures of lovely Riley all wrapped up! 

Thank You so much for the knitted blankets & a big thanks to all the wonderful children who spent time knitting them.They put a lot of thought in to it with their wonderful colours :-) !! Its lovely to see Children showing an interest in animal rescue & we are delighted they choose us as their charity to donate them too.All the blankets will be put to great use.
 
I will attach a picture of Riley a Jack Russell who is in foster care at the moment awaiting his new home. Riley was saved from a pound with severe injuries 7 weeks ago (now recovered) and he came in to the care of Cavan Spca. We placed Riley in a foster home as we felt he needed the extra one to one attention, & to help him overcome his fear of humans .Riley had open wounds on his back & his side and the vet along with ourselves suspect he was spiked with something. Last night Riley was making great use of his blanket that he loves & he also likes to be wrapped up at night.
 
 
Many thanks.

Junior and Senior Infants recently had a very enjoyable end of year school tour. The day set off to a good start with plenty of activity at Kool Kids play centre which the children had great fun on the slides, climbing wall and they were delighted to get their faces painted with their favourite cartoon characters!!

Subsequently the children visited Cavan Garda Station where they were given a great insight into the different parts of the station and they were also afforded an opportunity to get their fingerprints taken and experiment with walkie-talkies.

Indeed, there was much banter among the little ones when Ms. McDonald was locked into the cell!! 
It certainly was a memorable visit and we thank the Gardaí for giving us the chance to see what daily life in a busy Garda Station is really like.

We rounded the day off nicely with a trip to Synergy gym, where the children rocked some moved at a Gymka session.

A great day was had by all and it was lovely for us to enjoy a sample of the  landmarks and activities our town has to offer.'
