Some highlights from a football match between An Garda Sίochάna and the Street Kings from Sheriff Street on 14th October. Great match, but sadly no spectators yet.
The friendly was in Tolka Park. The Street Kings are managed by Alan McCarthy, our community sports officer at North Wall CDP.
Alan also togged out on the night. He's pictured left below. Well done lads!
It's that spooky time of year again. The NEIC and our local communities have organized loads of Hallow'een events for the little ones, and not-so-little. Here's the info on the Sunday events planned for the night of Hallow'een. You'll find lots more Friday and weekend events on www.bigscream.ie. Check them out, if you dare....
October is a month when we support those living with cancer. This year NWCDP held a raffle, a pyjama day and other events to back a member of our own community. Here Lisa (left) and Tina (right) announce a raffle winner in our draw. We raised €1,900 in all.
A big thank you to everyone who donated prizes, bought raffle tickets and organised these events. We really appreciate your support.
Our Knitting Club ladies are as busy as ever! Lily (left) and Patricia (right) have made beautiful dolls for the Christmas crib in St. Laurence O'Toole church, North Wall parish, and for home decorations. Lots of sweet details, too. The dolls have little noses, cloaks, belts, scarves - one with a white snowball attached. The carol singers even have a hymn book!
Our thanks to Dublin City Community Co-op for the wool. And to Lily, Patricia and all our Knitting Club members for their work.
We are seeking expressions of interest for the positions of Directors at North Wall Community Development Project (CLG).
NWCDP is based in Lower Sheriff Street, Dublin 1. It is part of the North-East Inner City area.
Brief Overview of NWCDP
On Friday, our GoDigital! ladies put down their knitting needles and tried creative writing instead. They were taking part in Poetry Town, a nationwide festival that took place from 10th to 18th September. Poet Laureate Rachel Hegarty did a great job leading the group. The ladies took to it quickly -- a chance to meet new people, as Ellen said, and put memories and thoughts on paper. We can't wait to see the result. The event was sponsored by Poetry Ireland. Many thanks to Rachel and the festival organisers.
28th July was special at North Wall CDP. It was graduation day for 17 pre-school children from Little Treasures community crèche. Looking very smart in their black gowns and hats they had a socially-distanced ceremony in St. Laurence O'Toole Recreation Centre, Sheriff Street. Then they enjoyed a treat lunch back in the crèche.
Each child received a traditional St. Christopher's medal to guide them on their journey to 'big school'. Best of luck to all our graduates and their proud families!
