Disney Cruise Line brought holiday cheer to students at Albury Sayle Primary School in Nassau with a surprise visit from Mickey Mouse during the Disney Wish’s recent port call.
The line’s cast and crew members, alongside Mickey Mouse, helped spread joy to the students and teachers.
“Disney Cruise Line ships visit Nassau every week, all year long, and for many of our crew members, this community feels like home,” said Bernadette Sweeting-Miller, public affairs manager, Disney Cruise Line. “It means so much to us to bring some Disney magic off the ship and create memorable moments for local students, especially this time of year.”
A total of 150 primary school students enjoyed a special moment with Mickey, taking photos and receiving a Disney toy as a holiday gift.
“It’s been said that ‘it takes a village to raise a child.’ This is best seen in the educational arena as the community and organizations, like Disney Cruise Line, come together to improve the lives of our students,” said Naria Holbert, principal, Albury Sayle Primary School. “We are grateful for Disney Cruise Line’s support and the generous contributions they’ve provided our school for more than a decade.”
This year, as part of the Disney Ultimate Toy Drive, Mickey Mouse will travel the world, visiting schools, hospitals and nonprofits to spread joy to children and families in need. His journey can be followed at DisneyConnect.com/MickeyTracker.
