Bhí comórtas seanfhocail, tráth na gceist, filíocht, ceol agus ceilí ar siúl sa rang. Rinne siad cluichí agus leitheoireacht le na naíonán. Chomh maith le sin, bhain siad an thaitneamh as an dramaíocht a scríobh siad, ‘Bialann Blasta’. Maith sibh! Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam. #seachtainnagaeilge   #snag   #rangasé   #molanóigeagustiocfaidhsí   www.rehinsns.com

The Sleepy Scholar  and I had a really great  time with the students and teachers of Rehins National School  this week, talking folklore, local legends and, of course, our own St Patrick, his many tales and travels! Huge thanks to Ms Bourke and team for the invite, the students were full of brilliant questions and definitely kept us on our toes! It was very cool going back to my old school and touring my old classroom... last seen in 1982... time sure flies #meetmeinmayo
