Cashel: Multicultural workshops
August 19th, 2010 · No Comments
This year’s multicultural workshops were a huge success, with 30 children attending to learn about Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Egypt and Romania. Every morning we learned some interesting facts about the chosen country, did some crafts, and played traditional games. We even attempted the Mexican Hat Dance and the Romanian Hora Dance. At the end of each workshop, there was some traditional food to be tasted. Each child also received a “multicultures @ your library” T-shirt, courtesy of Europe Direct.

Nenagh: ‘Pre Shcool’ concert
June 28th, 2010 · No Comments
On Friday 28th May, children who were ‘graduating’ from the Rainbow Pre-School in Nenagh presented their end of year concert to family and friends in the library. Comprising all the poems, rhymes, songs and dances that the children had learned throughout the year the concert was a spectacularly colourful (and noisy) event. Proud parents didn’t seem to mind and in common with any hard bitten paparazzi they tried their best to capture the ‘money shot’ of their special celebrity! Others took no chances and filmed the entire show! Each year the concert raises nmoney for charity and this year was no exception with the Children’s Hospital in Crumlin being the beneficiary. Crumlin was chosen as two of the children attending the Rainbow pre-school had cause to thank this wonderful hospital for the tremendous care and support they received while attending there.
