COMMUNITY spirit is in abundance as members of Enniskillen Methodist Church showed great generosity by donating computers to Jones Memorial Primary School to help support learning during the current Covid-19 lockdown.
Church Minister, Reverend Lorna Dreaning, along with Treasurer, William Cooper, arrived at the school last Wednesday (January 27) with four computers for families to use for remote learning.
The church, which is located at Darling Street, Enniskillen, had received donations from members to support children who needed access to technology to support learning.
As a result, four devices – and more – will be allocated to families as gifts.
Sandra Isherwood, Principal, extended thanks on behalf of the school, saying: "We are very grateful to the Methodist Church in Enniskillen for their kind donation of computers. We have families who will benefit immensely and immediately from this thoughtful generosity."
Roberta Bailie, Vice-Principal at Jones Memorial Primary School, and some children who are currently in school, accepted the computers on behalf of the whole school family.
Rev. Dreaning said: "We are delighted to be in a position to help practically. It is great to be partnering with a local school. Our members, alongside outside agencies, have made this donation possible."
