Garden Winners

The winners of the school and community categories for Wexford in Bloom received their prizes and certificates at a ceremony at Wexford Borough Council on Monday 26th September 2011. Mayor of Wexford Davy Hynes was on hand to dole out the honours to the various green-fingered winners, who all did their bit to make Wexford that bit more colourful and attractive in 2011.

The Faythe School won the Silver Medal in the Schools' Garden category and Ms. Mullins and four pupils from the school went down to the Ceremony which was held in the Borough Council HQ just off Hill Street. They were accompanied by Colm Ó Muirí from the South End Family Resource Centre who hand worked with the children on the project during the last school year.

Ms. Mullins organised a taxi to and from the ceremony and the lovely certificate that the school won is proudly displayed outside the Sports Hall.

A special word of thanks must go to Colm for all his help, the past pupils from the school now in 4th Class of CBS who had worked on the project and to Ms. Mullins who kept the whole thing. on track.
