Students Launch Christmas Appeal Video in Aid of St Vincent de Paul

We are delighted to share that our annual student-led Christmas Appeal in support of the local St Vincent de Paul is officially underway. For the past number of years, our students have created heartfelt videos to raise funds for families in our community, and this year’s first release is now live!

The project is entirely student driven, with staff acting only as facilitators. This year’s production team—Louis Monks, Aisling Kelly, Andrew Keegan and Robert Boyle—have worked with dedication and creativity to produce a beautiful rendition of “Sanctuary” from the TV show Nashville, performed by sixth-year students Katie Carroll, Lydia Dillon and Kian Casey.

All funds raised will go directly towards purchasing vouchers from local shops, which will then be distributed by St Vincent de Paul to support families in need over the Christmas period.

You can view and donate using the link below:

We encourage parents to share the link on social media, spread the word among family and friends, and support the appeal in any way you can.

Keep an eye out for a second group video, featuring students from all year groups, which will be released on Wednesday.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support in helping our students make a meaningful difference in the local community.
