First and Second class children were delighted to invite their Grandparents for a special celebration in Fossa NS last week. After interviewing our Grandparents in the lead up, we enjoyed hearing stories of long ago when they were young. We prayed for our Grandparents in heaven and Fr Niall lit a special candle beside our remembrance prayers on the day. We gave a great rendition of a Beatles song and a poem for all to enjoy but the highlight was over 60 children playing tin-whistle as a special treat for our Grandparents. We spent weeks making special art gifts and enjoyed a game of bingo, before we had cups of teas and treats provided by our wonderful Parents’ Association.
A truly memorable day.
A special thank you to the teachers Ms Foley , Ms McSweeney , Mr Culloty , Ms Dromey , Ms O Mahoney and SNA s Mary , Nancy , Elaine, Mikie, Jackie and Aoife who went to great effort to prepare the children and the beautiful art for the special occasion .
We also wish to thank Fr Geaney for joining us on the special day .
