December was a very busy—and very active—month here at Meenkilly NS!

This year, Santa himself made a surprise visit and even took a dash around the school yard, high-fiving and fist-pumping all the pupils. The excitement was electric as the children cheered him on, posed for photos, and enjoyed the festive fun.

Our pupils were also hard at work preparing a wonderful Christmas Carol Concert for parents and grandparents. They sang beautifully, played music, and acted out Christmas scenes, spreading joy and festive cheer to the whole school community.

It wasn’t just the pupils who were active this December—the Parents’ Association were busy too, creating our much-loved Toy Show Treat Boxes for every child to enjoy. A big míle buíochas to them for their kindness and creativity.

Here are some photos of the children enjoying their special treats and taking part in our festive activities!
