The spirit of giving is well and truly alive in Kilcornan National School! Despite the many financial pressures on people, particularly at this time of year, the pupils, staff and parents of Kilcornan National School demonstrated their global citizenship by contributing to a number of extremely worthwhile causes. Seventy shoeboxes were created and sent to Trócaire's Christmas Shoebox Appeal. The mental health charity 'Hearth and Mind' benefitted from a Colours Day raising over 285 euros. Our Christmas Jumper Day in aid of Crumlin Children's Hospital raised just over 400 euros! We are also in the process of collecting donations for FOCUS Ireland before we finish up for our Christmas holidays. It is heartwarming to see the kindness and generosity of our community towards those in need at this time of year and we thank you all for your contributions!!
