St. Leonard's National School, Dunnamaggin

Congratulations to all the children on a truly wonderful Christmas concert today. The pupils brought the Christmas Story to life beautifully in the church, creating a very special and memorable occasion for everyone present. Ms O’Keeffe’s class set the tone with lovely tin whistle music, while our 5th and 6th class pupils confidently narrated the story. 2nd class did a fantastic job acting out the Nativity, with wonderful performances from Mary, Joseph, the angels, shepherds

Santa Claus arrived into school on Monday with his reindeer and elf on tow! The excitement was electric! Santa confirmed thst all the boys and girls in Dunnamaggin are on the 'Nice List" and just asked that they leave a carrot out for Rudolph. Merry Christmas Santa and safe travels next week. Many thanks to the Parents Association for providing selection boxes for all the children. All proceeds from the festive visit are going towards Crumlin Children's hospital.

Witches, skeletons, zombies, Michael Jackson, Superheros, The Lorax and many more characters invaded St Leonard's on Thursday for Halloween dress up day. The Costume parade, followed by a spooky dance or two and the announcement of the "How many Spiders" made for a very special and scary day in school 🎃
