St. Brigid’s Day/ Feast of St. Blaise

12th Feb 2026

Third and fourth class learned all about St. Brigid’s Day, the story of her life, her mission to build a monastery and her desire to teach about God. Transition Year students from Carrigallen Vocational School came to our school to teach everybody how to make their very own St. Brigid’s Day crosses! 

On February 3rd, Fr. McMahon visited to bless the throats of each child in celebration of the Feast of St. Blaise.
