St. Patrick’s Day Cards

Hello all,
3rd Class want to give you an update on our St Patrick’s Day card challenge.
Over the last few weeks the children have been very excited collecting post from the office. We have received over 100 cards from all over the world! We have included a map of all of the places they have come from. The children were busy filling out their maps and learning about all of the places around the world.

We even received one from the President of Ireland, Michael D Higgins!!!

Not only did we get wonderful cards full on information about some of the countries, we also received lots of lovely gifts and treats. These include: luggage tags, highlighters, cultural treats, photographs and postcards, magnets, different currencies, colouring pencils, brochures, a t-shirt, sightseeing books, seeds and stickers to name a few! We also compiled all of the postage stamps from all over the world.

We just want to say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who got involved by putting the word out there and even writing and sending cards/treats/gifts. We are so grateful and what an amazing experience it has been for 3rd Class.

If you would like to share this message to family members and friends who got involved we would be very appreciative also!

Thanks again for your kindness, generosity and support for the project. There was fantastic learning in it for all.

3rd Class, Noeleen & Sophie
