The event was in aid of this year’s Irish CE Missionary Project, “Open Schools Worldwide” which aims to bring learning and hope to children in developing countries worldwide who otherwise would not be able to attend school. In urban areas they are most often street children orphaned by HIV/AIDS and in rural areas they are orphans or children caring for their siblings or sick parents.

The Magheramorne children with their leaders Gary Bissett, Lorna Swann and Gillian Craig, walked from Drains Bay carpark to the beautiful Carnfunnock Country Park where they had a brilliant time in the Adventure Playground before walking back to the car park.
