All of you who have contributed so generously for the purchasing of the defibrillators & making this project so successful are invited to come along on the night.

Williamstown National School Parents Association are holding a MONSTER BINGO on Sunday 17th February at 3.00pm (sharp) in Williamstown Community Centre. Lots of spot prizes. Bring your family and friends. Doors open at 2.00pm.
The Trόcaire Collection is always associated with Lent. The season of Lent concentrates on three things, prayer, fasting and almsgiving. To assist us all with the prayer, Mass will be celebrated every Monday evening at 8pm. Make sure you have a Trόcaire Box in your home. It will remind you of almsgiving, making a contribution to the poor and starving of the world. Your contribution last year was very generous. You can see all the details on the notice board.
