The first of February.. anyone else think 2012 is going by so fast? Today is supposed to be the beginning of Spring..... i'm freezing. Today is also Saint Brigid's Day, the patroness of Ireland and Patron Saint of our county Kildare.
As i went to St.Brigid's primary school, we all had a lot of respect for her and learned so much about her over the years. She grew up in Louth and was a very religious woman. She built a church in Kildare and spent a lot of time there, hence why she is the patron Saint of Kildare.
In religion, we are setting up the prayer room to suit the occasion. We have put a lot of work into the room, be it painting a poster of her and putting music together. The service is today so I hope the school enjoys it as much as we did setting it up.
Next Tuesday, we are going to Kildare town so visit St.Brigid's well, I'm sure we will learn a lot more about her life and have a great day, just like the other TY trips.
