On the 10th of December, we went Carol Singing at the Live Crib outside of Navan's Shopping Centre. We dressed up in Christmas jumpers and wore Christmas hats. It was raining but that didn't stop us. We sang Silent Night and added in the signs that our sign language teacher taught us. The Rose of Tralee also came along in a large white carriage with two white horses and she cut the ribbon to the Live Crib. There were many children there as well from different schools. There was a colouring competition on for those children. Even Santa Claus made a quick appearance on the day. We really enjoyed our afternoon. By Rachel Hennelly | |
At Christmas, we went Carol Singing with Mr Burke. All of the TY's wore festive clothes, we even had our own Santa Claus and Elf to sing with us. We practiced a lot and sang songs such as "Silent Night", "We wish you a Merry Christmas" and "Let it go". Many children from the local Primary Schools and Playschools visited our sing along for the opening of the Live Crib. Many people enjoyed our singing and joined in. As it got closer to the opening of the crib, the Rose of Tralee came by in a horse and carriage. She joined in with our singing and we even got a "selfie" with her. She officially opened the live crib and a turkey escaped from it. It was a very good day. We all got a box of chocolates each for our singing.
