See our project on co-operation - Mid Offaly Housing Association The senior classes entered a competition run by Laois Education Centre and sponsored by Glanbia. It involved doing a project on the theme 'Co-operation is Cool' and we chose the Mid Offaly Housing Association for our project. Eight children presented their project in Portlaoise on April 27th and we were thrilled when we won third prize. Click on the link above to see the wonderful work that was done.
