Father Patrick Donohoe, pastor of Holy Family Parish, blessed the new early development playground for preschooler's at Holy Family School on Dec. 3. Father Donohoe, the students and representatives of the John G. and Marie Stella Kenedy Memorial Foundation participated in the ribbon cutting of the playground.
The playground, made possible through a grant from the Foundation, "is a much-needed addition to our early childhood development area of the school," Tony Lopez, Director of Marketing and Stewardship at Holy Family, said.
Teachers from the different grade levels and Father Alejandro Saenz presented gifts to Foundation representatives Silvia Whitmore, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, and Judy Gilbreath, Chief Grants Officer on behalf of Holy Family Church and School. A group of prekindergarten students were immediately allowed to begin playing on the newly blessed playground.
