On Tuesday 22nd September, we had a very special visitor to our school. Sergeant David Mc Carney from the Irish Defence Forces presented our school with our national flag. He told how we must care for the flag and next year, on March 15th, we will raise the flag during a ceremony in the school, as part of the 1916 commemoration. We learned lots about 1916, sixth class read the Proclamation and we sang the National Anthem, Amhrán na bhFiann. Thank you Sgt. Mc Carney for visiting our school. We had a great day! |
