As part of the celebrations, the Board of Governors funded a free Christmas dinner for every pupil.
In addition to the celebrations, all pupils took part in the Daily Santa Mile, an initiative supported by the Health Trust through The Daily Mile.
During the mile, pupils shared Christmas cheer with the local community by handing out candy canes and chocolate treats to members of the public.
On December 5, Primary 5 pupil Yazmin handed over the school’s toy collection to the River Radio Christmas Toy Appeal.
Principal Mrs Ashley Donaghey said: “Christmas is a time for kindness and community and we were delighted to see our pupils not only enjoying festive fun but also givig back and promoting positive wellbeing. These activities remind us all of the importance of generosity and togetherness.”
Oakgrove IPSN encourages other schools and early years settings across Northern Ireland to join in initiatives like the Daily Mile, celebrating the benefits of physical activity for health and happiness.
