On a fresh and crisp December morning, our school was filled with festive excitement as we laced up our runners, donned our Santa hats, and took part in our much-anticipated Santa Dash in aid of Crumlin Children’s Hospital.

With the wonderful support of the Gardaí from the village, pupils, staff, families and friends ran and walked together from the village all the way up to the school, spreading Christmas cheer every step of the way. The atmosphere was buzzing, and the festive fun was truly in full swing!

There was no shortage of creativity on display, with plenty of festive costumes, Santa hats, twinkling lights, and even some of our furry friends getting into the Christmas spirit too 🐾🎄. Smiles, laughter and goodwill filled the air, making it a morning to remember.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our school community, the event raised €775.42, which will be sent directly to Crumlin Children’s Hospital to support the amazing work they do for children and families.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part, donated, supported, and cheered us on. Your kindness and festive spirit truly made this event a great success. What a wonderful way to celebrate the season of giving!
