I have enjoyed my travels to Ireland to learn about my heritage (O'Flaherty/Flaherty). 🍀
I enjoyed sharing with the children about Ireland. 🇮🇪
We had fun learning facts as well as reading some fun stories/folk tales!
This week we have had many discussions about what we feel lucky about.
The children are doing very well at school and are making daily growth
physically, emotionally, socially, and academically.
I am lucky 🍀 to be able to witness that!
I hope you enjoyed your weekend!
