✨ A Huge Thank You to MJOS Group ✨
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mick O’Shea and the MJOS Group for their incredible work refurbishing the bathrooms at Saplings Special School during the Easter holidays.
The transformation has made a real difference to our school community β€” creating a brighter, more modern, safer and accessible space for our pupils to use.
The team from MJOS did a fantastic job removing unused and unwanted pipework, installing safer and more efficient pipework and sanitary ware. They also removed the old flooring and replaced it with new, easy to maintain flooring. New partitions were installed to ensure that doors, locks, etc were up to current standards.
Thank you to everyone involved for your professionalism, care, and generosity. Support like this truly has a lasting impact, and we are extremely grateful. πŸ’™
A special thank you also to Kill Action Group for their support in making these improvements happen in our school!

🎁 A Huge Thank You to Our Wonderful Supporters at Naas Point 🎁

We would like to sincerely thank Maud from Naas Point who generously donated some amazing toys to our school. Your kindness and thoughtfulness mean so much to us.
The toys were very appropriate for our children, and it was a joy to see how much fun they had playing with them. There were lots of smiles, laughter, and excitement as the children explored and enjoyed their new games and toys.
Your support has truly made a difference and brought so much happiness to our school community. Thank you for thinking of our children and for helping to create such special moments for them.

✨ It was a busy summer here at Saplings as we prepared to welcome back our lovely pupils! ✨
Over the break, we made some fantastic developments β€” including a brand-new playground with beautiful biodiversity signs. We also have new communication boards throughout the school and in both playgrounds, an inspiring Lego wall and vibrant murals to brighten up our shared areas. πŸŒ±πŸŽ¨πŸ¦‹
Now that our pupils are back, it’s wonderful to see how much they are really enjoying these exciting additions to their school days! Thank you so much to our amazing supporters who helped make it all happen ✨
