We are slowly heading back to normality...

It was so good to see everyone outside in the sunshine last week and Mount Congreve gardens looked so beautiful. It’s great that things are gradually opening up again and we can’t wait to get back to our classrooms 🌻🌼

@ Mount Congreve

Well done to Youki who made and designed her very own Bodhrán for a TY workshop ☑️

The Bodhrán is a traditional Irish drum which is common throughout Irish and other forms of Celtic music.🥁🍀

The sun is shining and gradually (and safely) our beautiful country is starting to open up again. We can’t wait to be back in our classrooms but we have to wait a little while longer before we can welcome our students and teachers back to Washington Lodge.🏫

In the meantime, here is a list of things we’ll be able to do again from next Monday. What’s the first thing you will do when things open up? 💃
