A beautiful example of a Christmas Story, using technology to support learning!
Well done to all the children in the SET room. They have worked so hard to complete all the props needed for the Christmas play, along with starring in the show! Fantastic work everyone!
Delicious treat from our cookery club today as we approach Halloween. A lovely, warm and seasonal soup!
Last week we made a St. Brigid's Cross. rigid's cross or Brigit's cross (Irish: Cros Bhríde, Crosóg Bhríde or Bogha Bhríde) is a small variant of the cross often woven from straw or rushes. It appears in many different shapes, but the most popular designs feature a woven diamond or lozenge in the centre. The cross is named for the Christian saint Brigid of Kildare.
Brigid's cross is typically woven on 1 February, her feast day, as well as the festival of Imbolc in pre-Christian Ireland. Hanging Brigid's cross from the rafters of one's house was believed to bring the blessing and protection of the saint for the remainder of the year. The practice of crafting Brigid's crosses declined in the 20th century, however, in part due to house renovations that made hanging them difficult.
