The Christmas festivities started in earnest last Wednesday with our School Christmas Fair, organised by the Friends of St. Ninian's. The event was very well attended by students, parents, staff and members of our wider community. Earlier that day the Lower School choir visited the Manx Blind Welfare to sing carols and distribute presents.
Carol Singing
Next week will see both the Lower School and Upper School choirs visit other homes for the elderly in our community to sing carols and distribute presents bought with the money raised at our Mhelliah earlier in the year, we also have Christmas Jumper Day on Friday 14th which will raise money for Children in Need.

Carol Service / Alumni Soiree
Things really get going in the final week of the term with our School Carol Service in St. Ninian's Church on Monday 17th December at 7pm - all are welcome. We have also invited all our Sixth Formers who left the school last year to come back into school before the Carol Service to share some refreshments, catch up with each other and let both their peers and former teachers know how they are getting on - whether that be at University or in employment.
Santa Dash / Memorial Match
On the afternoon of Thursday 20th December we have our Senior Football/Rugby Memorial Match (in memory of Rob Campbell) which sees our senior football team take on our senior rugby team in a game made up of a half of each sport. Friday morning sees all students and staff challenged to take part in our 'Santa Dash' in which all from both sites take part in a short run around the school during their tutorial time.
Christmas Extravaganza
The festivities at school culminate on the last afternoon of term with the Sixth Form Extravaganza at upper school and the staff pantomime at Lower School.
