​Gaelscoil Dhroichead na Banndan would like to support our local branch of St Vincent De Paul again this Christmas. Essential items needed are non-perishable foods, such as canned goods and basic household supplies e.g tea, coffee, sugar, beans, peas, pasta, soups, sauces, etc. We would like if each child could bring in one item for this worthy charity.  A box will be placed under the Christmas Tree in the school from December 1st - December 12th.
We would like to thank each of you in advance for your support in helping us help our local community.
 

​Beidh fáilte roimh na daltaí geansaí Nollag a chaitheamh nó hata Nollag a chaitheamh ar an Aoine an 16ú lá de mhí na Nollag. Ní bheimis ag súil le tuismitheoirí ag ceannach rud go speisialta don lá – beidh aon rud bainteach le téama na Nollag oiriúnach. Bheimis buíoch da bhféadfadh gach páiste €2 a thabhairt. Rachaidh an t-airgead chuig an Bandon Community Hospital.
 
Children are invited to wear a Christmas Jumper/Christmas Hat on Friday, 16th December. We do not want people buying something especially - anything with a Christmas theme is suitable.
We would ask that a donation of €2 per child be given in aid of the Bandon Community Hospital who are currently raising funds for the major re-development of the present facility.
