How can we protect ourselves from the sun?

Welcome back everyone. We are now in our last term of school. We are very busy preparing for our First Holy Communion next week. WE are so excited and we are working very hard to learn all our prAyers.
We would like to congratulate everyone who participated in the Feis over Easter. WE are so lucky to have such a talented class. Listen to Rachael and MOlly H below saying their poems.
Ms Burke was in Paris over the Easter. Her sister was running in the Paris marathon. A marathon is a very tough run. Over 41,000 people ran in the marathon. Ms Burke's sister ran for 26 miles and she did an amazing time of 3 hours and 40 mins. It was a great day. Trés bien.and we are very proud of her.
