Ballaquayle School

Dreamcatcher — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 11:32:32 +0000

A very different application came into The Dream Catcher Appeal from the head of Ballaqauyle school back in April asking if Dream Catcher could grant a wish of the children at the school for a footpath to lead to their school playing field.
The was currently no footpath from the school to the field and so in the winter months this area would be out of bounds to students without welly boots or a very mess trek through the mud.
Many companies had helped with digging out the footpath and donating funds but there was still a shortfall in funds for the project.
The comittee agreed that by providing the funds for the materials the path could get underway and so this wish was granted.
Below are some of the pictures from the opening of the footpath for which Dream Catcher were delighted to go along to.

The Manx Radio Dream Catcher Appeal mascot Crackers and Chris Williams went along to Ramsy Outdoor to deliver some new equipment for the club.

We received an application from the club for new bikes and equipment to increase participation at the club, to give new riders a chance of having a go on a race bike and to give current riders the option to try out a size up before buying. We donated a DK expert race bike, as well as 2 intense junior bikes and an intense mini xl as well as 6 full face helmets and 6 pairs of gloves to make sure riders coming along to try out the sport are well protected.

The children were over the moon with the donations and couldn’t wait to get the to BMX track to enjoy the new equipment and bikes. Happy Riding!!
