The children were very busy on Friday, the 1st of February. The older children helped the younger children to make crosses so that every home received a nice new St. Brigid's cross. Well done boys and girls.

The boys and girls told the story beautifully and sang An Chéad Nollaig. They performed Merry Christmas Everyone using lámh hand signs and had some dancers performing too.

Nicole is in the process of rasing €11,000 to build a school in Malawi, Africa. Nicole came to visit us in Killeen on Monday, the 10th of December. She showed us photos of her work in Malawi and the plans they have to build the post-primary school in March 2019. We all donated on Christmas Jumper Day and we raised over €240! Well done everyone.
