Knockskeagh Christmas Carol Karaoke

As is tradition on our final day before the Christmas holidays, all classes assembled in the school hall for our annual Christmas Carol Karaoke. This is always a very special performance and this year’s version did not disappoint.
This year our 3rd class brilliantly sang and danced ‘Dominick the Donkey’ as part of the show to great excitement by all classes.
Also as the children returned to their classes via the schoolyard, it even began to snow.
We’d like to wish all pupils, staff and their families a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Enjoy the holidays.
