Longford teacher wins 'once in a lifetime trip' to Lapland with her family

Longford national school teacher, Bernie Daly, is set to jet off to meet Santa in Lapland with her family next month after she won a very special competition with TheJournal.ie and Sunway Holidays.

She told TheJournal.ie: "All my life I’ve wanted to go to Lapland, I actually had it on my to-do list for when I retire. It might be the child coming out in me, I don’t know. I don’t know how many competitions I entered."

Bernie is planning  to bring her twin four-year-old grandchildren, Harry and Joe (although, according to TheJournal.ie the boys don't know yet!) to meet Santa.
