The boys and girls in the playschool have been so good, Santa will be visiting again this year.
The annual seasonal visit will see elves accompanying Santa through the village with a selection of presents aboard the sleigh.
It coincides with an Open Day for Clonaslee High Nelly Club. As Christmas is truly the time of giving, the club is absolutely delighted to announce they will be joined by members of BUMBLEance Children’s Ambulance Service.
Thanks to the incredible and tireless team, hundreds of children have access to lifesaving care each year.
Members of the BUMBLEance team will be located outside Hickey’s Pub at 1pm, with the ambulance crew joining the High Nellies to answer any questions, meet and greet, enjoy a cup of tea and light refreshments, and of course photo opportunities. Santa is expected to make an appearance, too.
Clonaslee High Nelly Club said: “We cannot wait for December, 19th and encourage all who can attend to join us for our open day.
