A few weeks ago we welcomed Ella & Siona from Scoil Ide to learn about Doras for a school project. They spoke about classmates from different cultures, how despite differences, they all enjoy the same music, food & fun. Just kids being kids, united by what they share. A powerful reminder for us all.
