St. Patrick's Day
16th March 2017
MQP marked St. Patrick’s Day with a celebration of Irish culture. The day started with a whole school assembly in the Parish Centre. Mr Magee’s Y6 class used dance, art, music, drama and prayer to bring the St. Patrick’s story alive for all our pupils. Thank-you very much to the Y6 class for all their work.
Later in the day our Irish dancers, from a range of dance schools, treated us to a festival of dancing. Of course, being Irish and to celebrate the national holiday, we all took part in a dance as well. Sure, why wouldn’t we? Of course a song or two was also shared.
We also celebrated St. Patrick’s Feast Day by dressing in green and raising money for Trócaire as part of Green Day. There was also a bun sale organised by Y4. Thank-you to everyone at home who helped with the baking of our St. Patrick’s Day treats.
Enjoy the day off school and we hope you all have a lovely family day.
