“In October 2018 “Rathore Parents and Friends association” launched a fundraising drive called the “The Starburst Sensory Project”. Their aim is to raise £100,000 for a bespoke sensory room to provide an interactive learning environment for all their children. This is much needed as their current provision is inaccessible to wheelchair users and their equipment is broken and unsafe”.

Cllr Larkin added "It was a great mornings fun and craic and hopefully a good few pounds we’re generated for this worthy cause. A new sensory room at Rathore School Newry.Room will enhance facilities and improve life experiences for those pupils attending. Well done all involved."

Rathore are engaging with local businesses to help achieve their target and provide our community with this much needed facility. If you would like to help with their fundraising projects, please contact Rathore School on 028 302 61617 or Rathore School Parents & Friends Association Facebook page. #togetherwecan
