The children from the Cobh Mixed National School were invited to attend a Carol Sing-a-long at the Heritage Centre for their Annual Customer Night on the Thursday 5th December 2019.
The children with their festive Santa hats, sang their hearts out along with their teachers, and members of the Commodore Choir who were more than happy to accompany the children. The children’s carol singing created a lovely Christmas atmosphere and put everyone in the Christmas spirit. The children enjoyed hot chocolate and were presented with selection boxes at the end of the night as a token of appreciation from the Heritage Centre.
Mary O’Connor from the Great Island Newsletter was present to take photos on the night.
We would like to thank the Heritage Centre, the Commodore Choir members, Mary O’Connor, Eilish Blunden and not to forget the children, teachers and parents of Cobh Mixed N.S. Well done to you all for making the night a great success.

The children buzzing with excitement boarded the train at Cobh Railway Station with teachers and staff. Despite the bad weather the children thoroughly enjoyed the day.
EUROPEAN PROJECT
Our school is taking part in the Big Friendly Guide to European Union Project, which aims at developing awareness, knowledge and debate at Primary School level on the European Union and Ireland’s role within it.
As part of the programme we had a visit from Emanuelle Schon Quinlivan a UCC lecturer on politics. She played Tables Champ quiz with the children based on flags of the European Union. The children had a chance to show off their impressive knowledge of the current issues relating to the E.U, such as Brexit and Migration etc. As part of the programme the school will receive a plaque and representatives from the class will travel to UCC for a graduation ceremony.
