Christmas Jumper Day 2019
On Dec 6 2019, CBS Kilkenny was awash with festive cheer and Christmassy ensembles! The Student Council helped to co-ordinate a Christmas Jumper day to raise funds for four local charities. This was a whole school effort involving staff and students.
All students were encouraged to wear their Christmas jumper (or other festive attire!) and €2530.40 was collected on the morning.
The whole staff enjoyed a mouthwatering feast at lunch time, resulting in €550 being collected!
The Student Council also organised a Cake Sale in the front yard and a total of €284.75 was collected!
In total €3365.15 was collected and the Board of Management have very kindly agreed to add to this sum, to bring the final total to a very impressive €4000!!
This money will now be divided between the following four local charities who do amazing work in Kilkenny.
Many thanks to our brilliant Student Council, to Mr Kennedy and Ms Colleton and to Mr Downey for all of their hard work.
