Christmas Events

Our annual jumble/cake sale takes place in December.  We collect items such as toys, books, teddies, DVD’s, jewellery and bric-a-brac.  It is always a fun and memorable event in our school calendar and we all wear our Christmas themed clothes on the day to get into the festive spirit! The proceeds of this event in donated to a chosen charity every year.

We are very proud to receive our ‘Team Hope’ certificates every year for donating to the Christmas Shoe box. These shoe boxes are gifted to many children in Romania and other deprived countries worldwide.  Many thanks to the families of Corduff who continue to support this very worthy cause.

For the past several years the children in Scoil Phádraig have performed in a Christmas Carol Service in St. Michael’s church in Corduff.  The carol service  is a very special event in our school calendar and it’s an occasion that is thoroughly enjoyed by staff, parents, pupils and the wider community.  We are very lucky to have many musically talented children in Scoil Phádraig.  All proceeds from this event is donated to a chosen children’s charity every year.

We would like to thank Liebe Kelly and Barry Hughes for preparing the children for their performances. We would also like to thank Sean Walsh and Brian Walsh, who teach the children how to play some musical instruments such as Tin Whistle, Keyboard, Bodhrán and guitar as part of the school band. They always amaze us and the wider Corduff community when they perform in our Christmas Carol Services and other school productions throughout the year.
