The last term of school begins next Monday in our primary and post primary schools. Because Easter has been early it is a long term.
The oral exams in Irish and modern languages take place in early to mid April.
The author of this blog teaches German at a post primary school in West Kerry. It is a small non-fee paying school. It was originally founded by Mr and Mrs Mulcahy. Two years ago it moved from Cloghane to a new campus in Castlegregory.
School population is 100 and growing. A lovely freindly atmosphere pervades. While the Bishop of Kerry is the patron, it is not managed by any church authority.
Having taught at schools run by religious orders and imbibed the ideas of the particular 'ethos' that pervaded, I have to admit I am now asking myself, what was it all about?
We easily create a world around us that seems and looks important but very often it is about nothing, except our own self-importance.

God bless you!
But why be anonymous? Please explain the reason. Is it fair to say that anonymity sits well with this style of blog? Just a question.
