Because of the terrible weather conditions this week we couldn’t go to the church on Tuesday to celebrate the Immaculate Conception, so Father Joe came to us. Our whole school community was in the hall and Fr Joe celebrated a lovely Mass with us. Thank you to everybody and especially Fr Joe.
Since the cold weather started we have been feeding the birds. Mr Byrne’s class made a great bird feeder out of an empty plastic bottle and we hung it up on our bird feeding station, along with our other feeders. Sean is in charge of feeding the birds and he never forgets. Every day he has been breaking the ice on their water container and filling it up with fresh water, as well as filling the feeders. Well done Sean!
When we came back to school on Monday last every place was covered in snow. Here are some pictures of the garden under a blanket of snow – not a weed in sight!!
Look at one of our great hampers to be won this Christmas. All the staff of Talbot donated prizes to create this hamper. And would you believe, we actually have 2 hampers!
Our annual Christmas Bazaar will be on Thursday 9th of December from 9.30 onwards in the school hall.
Santa will be arriving to our special Santa’s Grotto (Thanks to Jason & Frank for making that!). It will cost €3 to visit Santa – you will get a photo and a present for that!
