Y1AF Celebrate St Brigid’s Day

6th Feb 2026

Thank you to our Year One children for teaching us all about St Brigid, one of Ireland’s patron saints. Mrs Farrell’s class acted out the story of St Brigid’s cloak, made St Brigid’s crosses and sang a beautiful rendition of ‘Brigid brings the Spring’. They reflected on how they can be kind and help others, just as St Brigid did. Well done Year One. We look forward to the lovely Spring weather ahead 🌸🌼🌷🌹
