ST BRIGID’S DAY - CROSS MAKING

St. Mary’s celebrates St. Brigid's day, Lá Fhéile Bríde, every February first, and with it comes a lovely tradition: The making of the St. Brigid crosses.

The St. Brigid’s Cross is made out of rushes and is traditionally hung in our homes to gain Brigid's protection and healing for the family over the coming year.

We warmly invite our parents and grandparents to St Mary’s Primary School this Friday 31st January, 9:15 am - 11:15 am to help make St Brigid’s crosses.

If possible, we kindly request that you bring rushes along. Thank you!
