Our 2nd class celebrated their First Holy Communion on Saturday 10th of May. It was a very exciting and special day for the children and their parents. The ceremony was lovely and the children looked fantastic in their beautiful dresses and smart suits, parents looked great too. Fr. Willie Byrne had a little chat with all children and their families, all the children felt very special. The children have worked very hard with Mr. O’Donoghue over the past few months in preparing for their Communion and this hard work was evident during the ceremony. We would like to say a big thank you to the parents who helped out, they did a great job and we all admired the beautiful artwork in the church. The choir were fantastic, everyone enjoyed the singing, we would like to say a special thanks to Ms. Ennis and Ms. Magrane for all their hard work with the choir. Ms. O’Grady accompanied on the accordian. Ms. Ennis and Ms. Magrane would like to take this opportunity to thank the choir for their hard work and dedication over the past few months.
