St Patrick's Day Parade

6th Mar 2023

Streetwise are running a section for Schools in the Strabane St Patrick's Day Parade on
Friday 17th March 2023.


Our school will be taking part in this Parade. It will involve groups of children from
Year 5 and Year 6. There have been two workshops so the pupils could make a prop as
part of the event. These were "craft" style workshops where children had a full morning
to create the structure of their prop and then an afternoon to decorate the prop.


These craft activities took place in school on the week beginning 27th February 2023 and
are now ready for use by each child! Excitement is building!


On St Patrick’s day, the Parade will begin at Holy Cross College at 2pm approximately.
The children will stay in their school groups throughout the event, with each group
being led by a designated member of the Streetwise team. The parade will finish at
Dock Street (behind the Alley Theatre). This should be approximately 3.00pm.


Further information will be sent out with regards to drop off and collection details in
the next week. Parents may accompany the children as they parade down through the
town with a view to collecting them at the Alley Theatre at 3.00pm when it is finished.
We invite everyone in our school family to support this fabulous community event!!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all!
