We had the pleasure and privilege of hosting the grandparents and special guests of 4th class last Friday in our school. The children together with Ms. Daly, led a service of thanksgiving for grandparents, followed by a display of a huge array of old artefacts ranging from a candelabra from 1901, a stereoscope which turned postcards into 3D images, old equine veterinary instruments, an LP of Joe Dolan, a Sony Walkman, old lanterns & cauldrons, paintings, photos, money, clothing, toys and memorabilia. The children had researched their items and written a short history on their piece -it was fascinating for all in attendance. The class also sang and played a few tunes for their guests, finishing up with a rousing rendition of Ireland's Call. A cup of tea and a chat rounded off the morning nicely! See below for photos of the day.
