💙💛 Meet Jinny Bradley! 💛💙
Jinny is aged 14, from Dundalk! 🥰 Jinny is in second year at St Brigid’s and absolutely loves school.
🎶 Jinny has music in her bones and is a huge Beatles fan! 🎸
This summer, Jinny travelled to Liverpool, where she loved visiting the famous Cavern Club and exploring the places the Beatles sang about. Her favourite part was the Beatles bus tour, especially hearing the story about Paul McCartney’s Auntie Jinny! ❤️
What a wonderful trip for a true Beatles fan! 🎶💙💛
