We wer fortunate to once again team up with Childrens Books Ireland for World Book Day 2025. They kindly donated 300 childrens books to the Mosney Village Library. We held a book gifting event and lots of children enjoyed choosing their favourite books with Blueys big little book emerging as a firm favourite with our smaller readers.
In March, Members of An Garda Síochána held a clinic in the Mosney Village Food Hall. These events take place frequently where residents can avail of advice, or if they need documents stamped and to learn about crime prevention, problem solving and community engagement. It is important that residents get to know members of the Community Garda Service and what they do. These clinics can help to improve the interaction and communication between all sections of the community and An Garda Síochána.

The Teachers and children from the Mabuhay Pre-school had the best time performing in their St. Patricks Day parade. They entertained the whole Village with their singing, dancing and merry-making! Sometimes it’s the smallest thing that makes you smile, and this little line of scooters parked outside the Pre-school is too cute!
Our New Mums and Mums-to-be coffee morning was held again this month. The morning was really well attended with lots of mums’ in attendance.
