Visit to Kildare

On Tuesday we went to Kildare to do a pilgrimage. It first started by watching a dvd of the history of Kildare town and St. Brigid. We went to the cathedral, it was freezing , we saw the stain glass windows dipicting the storys of St.Brigid and St.Patrick , the round tower, Brigids kitchen and the fire which was lit for 6000 years until destroyed by Cromwell .Next we visited the two wells from St Brigid and made a wish and prayed . It was a long day but inresting.

St Brigid

Today's St Brigids day !

We don't celebrate the day as much as we did in our primary school but that's obvious because our primary school was St Brigids.
Next week we are going to St.Brigids well in Kildare. For the last two weeks our class have been working on getting the prayer room ready for St. Brigids day. The class divided into separate groups ; the designers, music, art and history group. I was part of the designers. We organised what materials we would need, the well, the animals, and the tree with the brath Brides.
I will write to you again telling you how the day goes .
