Friday 24th April was a day of celebrations throughout the school to mark the 125th anniversary of the existence of the GAA. Holy Family, Magherafelt really got into the swing of it with fun GAA coaching for every child in the school and some spot prizes sponsored by Gaelic Life along the way. All the children and staff also got the chance to dawn their club or county colours on Friday. The event was very well supported by O'Donovan Rossa club, they provided coaches who put the 500 children through their paces throughout the day. Seamus Mc Cloy, county chairman and Anthony Mc Swiggan county vice chairman arrived in the afternoon to present certificates to all those who worked with the children throughout the day.
