Fenor N.S. Spend The Day At Nell's Farmhouse

We're pretty sure that all the boys and girls from Fenor N.S. will have no problem sleeping tonight after all the fresh air and fun they had today. Mary and Ger really enjoyed meeting all the kids and hope that they enjoyed their visit as much as we've enjoyed having them. We hope to see them all again soon.

Nells Farmhouse Prepare For Visit From Fenor N.S.

Ger and Mary are looking forward to welcoming Fenor N.S tomorrow to Nell's Farmhouse. The boys and girls of junior and senior infants will have an action packed afternoon on the farm. They will help Ger milk buttercup and then Mary will make homemade bread from the cream off the milk. This won't be just any old bread because it will be cooked over the open fire in Nell's traditional kitchen. They have lots of other farm yard friends to meet along the way. Fingers crossed the sun will shine for their visit, but I'm sure they will have lots of fun either way.
