Carol Singing

Many of our classes have represented our school by carol singing in a number of local areas recently.

Our school choir sang beautifully in the annual Carol Service at Clonakilty Parish Church last Sunday.

Our 5th and 6th classes raised money for Clonakilty Playground by carol singing at the Post Office in Clonakilty on Friday 9th of December.

Our 2nd Class fundraised for Saint Vincent DePaul and Clonakilty Lodge by carol singing in Clonakilty town on Friday 16th of December. The current Clonakilty Mayor Paddy McCarthy can be seen joining our 2nd Class carol singing in the video below.

Finally, our 3rd Class entertained the residents of Bushmount Nursing Home by carol singing on Monday 12th of December.

Well done to all involved in these recitals. You did Knockskeagh proud! 😀
