MEMBERS of the Letterkenny Milford Municipal District were pleased to welcome students from Little Angels School to the Chamber at Letterkenny Public Services Centre yesterday, as they prepare to compete in this month’s Special Olympics.
Seven students from Little Angels School will represent their school at the Special Olympics, taking place from June 18 to 21, with the opening ceremony scheduled for Tallaght Stadium on June 18.
Mayor Cllr Ciaran Brogan praised the students, as well as their teachers, carers, SNAs and coaches, for their commitment and hard work, and wished them every success on behalf of the elected members and staff of Donegal County Council.
The seven students representing Little Angels School will compete in the following events: Aaron McNulty – hurdles and skittles, Brandon Gibson – beanbag throw and target shoot, Peadar MacRuairi O Daimhin – hockey and target shoot, Lucy Dooher – hurdle step and beanbag throw target, Katelyn Buchanan – target shoot and log roll, Joshua Sweeney – skittle smash and beanbag throw and Curtis Mc Fadden – beanbag throw and skittles.
The visit provided an opportunity for members of the Municipal District to extend their support and encouragement to the students ahead of the Games.
Everyone at Donegal County Council wishes the Little Angels team the very best as they prepare to represent their school with pride on the national stage.
