The town’s first – and biggest little – parade of 2025
With all of the hype, fun, photos and reports on last weeks Saint Patrick’s Day parade one very important event was overlooked. Before the entrants lined up, the Beat fleet was in place or AJ has his weights prepared the students and teachers of Little Scholars Playgroup had the honour of holding the towns first parade of the year on Friday 14th.

Donned in their green and flanked by their also aptly dressed teachers the group could be seen marching down the lane behind their school, turning right and parading across the Main Street.
Friday morning is a particularly busy time in the town and the people going about their weekly errands were treated to a miniature sea of green with happy smiling faces singing and skipping along the footpaths of the ancient street.
The group called into shops, stopped to give elderly women hugs and high fives and posed for photographs with anybody who sought them.
It was a small event but it was one that brought a lot of smiles, laughter and happiness to all who were lucky enough to come upon it.
To Breda, Donna, Ruthie, Sarah and all in Little Scholars well done. You made lasting memories for your young people and made a lot of not so young people smile and brightened up their day.
