St. Patrick’s pupils off to Old Trafford
Trip organiser and teacher Gerry Heaney who has been organising trips to Old Trafford since the mid 1990s said that without doubt this is the most eagerly awaited fixture yet for the pupils and staff of the school with everyone busy counting the days to then.
Dylan Brennan a Year 8 pupil can’t wait to see some of his heroes like Rooney and Hernandez and hopefully see them score and listen to the roar of the crowd in the ground which is going to be amazing. For Joshua Floyd a Year 9 pupil the tour of the ground and seeing the players’ changing room and walking down the red tunnel and standing at the edge of the pitch is going to be awesome.

On Monday morning before setting off for home the weekend would not be complete without a return to Old Trafford for a tour of the stadium and a visit to the Old Trafford mega store. During their stay the school party will be staying at the excellent 3* Britannia Hotel in Wigan. It certainly promises to be a weekend everyone will remember for a long time.
