No ho-ho-homework for grateful pupils

A school has ditched ho-ho-homework for lessons in gratitude as part of its Christmas countdown.
Instead of dishing out maths and spellings from Monday, teachers at Gaelscoil Mhichíl Uí Choileáin in Clonakilty, Co Cork, will be asking their students to practise simple acts of gratitude at home for the next three weeks.
