School Quiz 2018
Many thanks to everyone who came along to our school quiz night. A great night was had by all with lots of fun along the way.
One of the most significant investments made by the Friends of Mullavilly in recent times was the purchase of 18 brand new I-Pads in 2014. A further 6 I-Pads were then purchased in 2016. The staff all had training in the different apps available and the children have been using them extensively now since September 2014. They are used in a variety of ways to aid learning and have been looked after very carefully so far by everyone. A massive thank you to the Friends of Mullavilly for all their hard work in fund raising for our I-Pads
