Several 2 – Teacher schools took part, teams were picked and mixed between all schools so pupils had a wonderful chance to play with lots of other children.

Hallowe’en 2023 at Forgney National School

October 27th was a very scary day at Forgney School. The classrooms were inundated with terrifying ghosts and witches and lots of creepy characters of all shapes and sizes. However the children were not too scared to enjoy ‘apple on a rope’ ‘catwalk parade’ scary disco dancing and a lovely party with treats and fun galore.

Well done to everyone who dressed themselves in the most amazing costumes and hair do’s. It was hard to tell who was who! Boo!
