St. Brigid’s crosses

31st Jan 2024
 
A big thank you to Fr. Conor for demonstrating to the Primary 5 children how to make a St. Brigid’s  cross.

Fr. Conor taught them to fold a rush in half and place it across the rush pointing upwards, the children had to repeat this process by rotating all the rushes 90 degrees anticlockwise, adding a new folded rush each time, until the cross was made. The children secured the arms of the cross with elastic bands. Finally Fr. Conor blessed the crosses.

The children were delighted with all their crosses, well done everyone. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜Š
