On St. Valentine’s Day 2014, the pupils in St Mary’s Church of Ireland National School, Carrigaline, County Cork  brought into school a huge number of items they had collected for Cork Penny Dinners.  This is a charity supported by the Parish  all the year round. Everything collected will be delivered to the charity at Little Hanover Street so that the clients and staff of Cork Penny Dinners will know that there is more than soppy hearts and cards to real ‘Love’ at this time of the year.
