Santas Elves working hard in the workshop creating handmade crafts for Charity Markets

Our Joinery and Plumbing department have been busy little elves working away in Santa`s workshop creating some amazing wooden and copper crafts to be sold at the GortnaMona Men’s Shed Christmas Bazaar on Saturday 7th December from 4-7:30pm and the Black Mountain Shared Space Project Christmas Market on Monday 10th of December from 5:30 – 8pm.
All proceeds will go to these 2 charities to help support those within the local area at Christmas.
                  
All of the crafts were made by our 1st year Joinery and Plumbing students from our Skills for Life and Work program. Loving the wooden Christmas Trees and also the little snowmen some lovely handcrafted gifts made by our talented students. My favourite is the copper saxophone player made by our 1st year plumber John Paul Norwood a very talented young man.
