First of all, let me name the Gardaí from the Mounted Unit who chaperoned Con on his visit to the School last Monday. They were Gda Sharon Kavanagh, Garda Deirdre O Donnell and Gda Jim Clavin from Clontarf and Garda Maria Halligan from the Garda Mounted Unit, A memorable day was had by all. I missed the highlight which was Maria’s explanation, in response to a question, of the word ‘gelding’!
This morning, I attended the Enrolment Mass in St. Anthony’s Church. I have to pay particular thanks to the Parents’ Pastoral Group who did such a lovely job of preparing the liturgy with the children. I am sure it was just as prayerful in the other churches. This partnership of Parents, Parish Community and School is the model for future litugical preparation in the Schools in the Parish.
To every parent who turned out- míle buiochas!
