Red Nose Day – Friday 15th March 2024At Kilmaine we are very keen to mark Red Nose Day and raise some money for Comic Relief. This year we are going to have a non-uniform day. As it is on the same day as our Saint Patrick’s Day celebrations in school, we would love to see lots of green or red clothes, along with some accessories (red noses/shamrock headbands etc).
We would kindly ask for a voluntary donation of £1 on this day. All donations will go to Comic Relief. We look forward to seeing lots of red and green on the day!
