Steelstown Primary School & Nursery Unit, Derry

Smiles, Support & Superhero Fun – A Day to Remember!

29th Jun 2026

Today was a truly special and joyful day in our school as we came together to celebrate and support one of our nursery pupils, Dáibhín.

We hosted a coffee morning to raise funds for Dáibhín’s chosen charity — the Children’s ICU ward at the Royal Hospital. It was heartwarming to see our entire school community unite for such a meaningful cause.

Parents, children and staff joined us for a day filled with fun, laughter, and friendship as we showed our support for our truly remarkable young friend.

A sincere thank you to Colette Nash and her wonderful catering staff for hosting the event, preparing a fantastic selection of delicious treats and creating an amazing superhero lunch that was enjoyed by everyone.

We are incredibly grateful to all who attended and contributed so generously — your kindness and support mean so much.

A very special thank you to all those who donated towards the event and our raffle prizes:

Doherty’s Bakery, McDaid’s Bakery, Pure Gym, Elagh Tree Surgery, Tips & Tan, We Love to Party, Link47 and Gatelodge.  

A special word of appreciation and thanks goes to the McConnell and Mailey families.

It was a wonderful day filled with joy, community spirit, and kindness — one we will all remember fondly.
