The Parent Support Group liaise with the School principal and the volunteers within the parent support group to identify requirements of the school pupils and community. The requirements are listed, discussed and prioritized at the AGM. The PSG assign tasks and create project teams as required with timelines, responsible people and indicative costs for each aim and benefit. For example last year the principal identified a requirement to have an area for small focus groups or classes for the pupils and community. The PSG agreed to put a project team in place to raise funds and renovate, redecorate and make good the Old school building. The PSG organized a fundraising hike of Slieve Donard and used the funds to enable the required works on the old school building for the benefit of the pupils, staff and wider community of Derrylatinee. There is no harm arising from our purposes. The beneficiaries are the pupils, staff, families, and diaspora of Derrylatinee Primary School. There is no private benefit from our purposes.
