A committee has recently been formed with the aim of securing a play park for our children here in Clerihan. A site has been chosen between the all weather pitch and the walking track and we are very excited about the project!

As this park will be for the children we would love to get them involved in the planning of the project. We would love to hear their opinions and get their ideas on how they like to play and what they would like to see in the park.

Representatives from the committee have met with all the children in the schools this week to ask them to give us their ideas. We will then pass their ideas on to the play park planners and see if we can incorporate in as many of their ideas as possible. So please keep an eye out for the notice in the school bags this week! We would hope that the children could return their ideas to the ideas box in the school by the end of the week.

We hope that the whole community will roll in behind the project to make it a play park for the people by the people.
