KILLINCHY SCHOOL

The third annual flower show of the Killinchy School was held in the school. Excellent entries were received, while the majority of exhibits were of a high standard. Keen interest was evinced by the pupils, and many' parents visited the show, being entertained to afternoon tea later in the day.
