New Inn Notes 08/12/2025

SANTA COMES TO NEW INN

Santa Claus will be taking time out of his busy festive schedule to visit Ollie’s in New Inn on Sunday, 14 December, from 3.30pm to 6pm. This is a wonderful opportunity for children and families in the community to experience the magic of Christmas together. During the event, each child will have the chance to meet Santa and receive a special gift. There will also be a photo opportunity, allowing families to capture lasting memories of this special occasion. The festivities will continue with lively storytelling sessions and disco music to keep everyone in high spirits. Entry is €5 per child, with no booking required. All are welcome to join in what promises to be a fantastic afternoon filled with Christmas cheer and joy for all ages!

As always, we will be supporting Cuan Saor on the night and we ask you please to support this great worthy cause by bringing along non-perishable food on the night which Cuan Saor will be most glad to receive.
