On April 19th, 2008, parents, teachers, and community members rallied together to install the new playground. Of course, the school owes a debt of gratitude to everyone who has supported this cause along the way; from attending fundraising concerts to purchasing 50/50 tickets to direct-giving. This Playground Project would never have been accomplished without the help of the community and parish. Below are the before and after photos of the Playground, a list of donors, and a breakdown of the funds. Thank you to all. We hope all of the children of the parish, school, and community will enjoy the new Playground. It certainly will bring new vitality to the school and parish.
