We would like to wish all the pupils in our 6th Class the very best this weekend as they receive the sacrament of Confirmation on Sunday 1st March.
We were very lucky this morning when Santa took time out of his very busy schedule to come along and see the children here. He started by walking around outside the school past all the windows, which brought about a lot of excitement in all the rooms! Our thanks to our Parents Association, who contacted Santa and asked him to come to visit. A great way to start our Christmas holidays!
This afternoon saw the first showing of our Christmas Nativity Play. The children have all been working very hard over the last number of weeks practising their singing and lines. They were delighted to see a great crowd of parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins and friends turn up to see them! Our thanks to Mrs Gavigan and Mrs McDaid for all their work preparing the children for the play, and to all the staff members who helped with costumes and props. As always, Barbara McGroary became our official photographer and her photographs will be on display here as soon as we have them. In the meantime, here are a few of our own (albeit unprofessional!) photographs.
The children from 3rd-6th Classes spent a little time on the Diamond in Donegal Town today entertaining the local shoppers with their carol signing. Mrs McDaid was our choir master and as always, the children sounded wonderful! Well done everyone!

Each year we take part in the annual Christmas Shoe Box Collection for the Team Hope Appeal, who distribute them to children in Eastern Europe and Africa who are affected by poverty. As always, the school community here at St. Naul’s showed true Christmas spirit and we had a large number of boxes donated. Thank you to everyone who helps us to support this worthy charity and give to children less fortunate than our own. Here you can see our Junior and Senior Infants proudly showing off some of the boxes we received!
Following the recent launch of the STEM initiative and the presentation here at the school, the pupils of 5th & 6th Classes were invited to the Abbvie facility in Sligo for a tour. They travelled in style on the STEM bus and were delighted after their very interesting tour to be presented with cupcakes and mementoes of their visit!
This week saw the start of our 6 week swimming programme with the pupils from 3rd & 4th Classes. This takes place annually here at St. Naul’s and it is very much looked forward to by the children! Here are the excited pupils on their way to the bus!
All the children dressed up today for some spooky fun at School! Some great costumes were on show!
