Children scream and shout in support of special day

MICKEY HARTE never had a smaller audience but he rarely got a bigger response either.

Ireland’s Eurovision hero was among a swarm of celebrities who entertained a pint-sized crowd yesterday as part of a series of countrywide events to mark National Children’s Day.

Boybands, ManKind and Brokenhill; soloists, Luke Thomas and Hazel Kaneswarren, and No Way Out, Ireland’s answer to Liberty X, all took the stage in Stephen’s Green to give the kiddies a live top of the pops treat.
