Padraig Harrington

Padraig Harrington
On Friday 29th January, 5th Class braved the cold and assembled in St. Anne's Church Car Park in their bright yellow high-viz jackets to meet Padraig Harrington to help promote Lollipop Day in aid of Oesophageal Cancer (which is happening at the end of February). The photoshoot was organised in conjunction with Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council's Traffic Department. The cameras snapped and pupils donned pink peaked caps and posed with the Traffic Warden, Marion, who replaced her usual stop sign with a giant lollipop one. Amidst mounting excitement the children awaited the arrival of Padraig Harrington who was as unassuming as he always appears on the television – he posed with the children for photographs and patiently signed autographs and answered questions. Everyone associated with the event commented on how well behaved our pupils were so WELL DONE 5th CLASS! You all deserved your lollipops at the end!
