Children had their breakfast as usually and took their three hours lessons. After some free time, we had lunch and got ready for the excursion.

They all were very funny! We had a short film about chocolate’s history and…

Dear Parents, Yesterday was a long journey! With a mixture of nerves and magic we landed in Ireland an hour and a half later than it was expected.

We had a great welcoming in Rathdown school. As we hadn’t eaten much since breakfast, and kids were starving, the kitchen staff prepared a delicious meal for us; Ham and cheese sandwich, crisps, chocolate and an apple.…
