St. Brigid's Cross

 

We made Saint Brigid's crosses yesterday with pipe-cleaners. 

Today is Saint Brigid's Day.

It is traditional to leave the cross outdoors the night before Saint Brigid's Day and she blesses them for you to use.

Lots of farmers keep St. Brigid's crosses in the sheds with their animals to keep them safe. 

Senan made a proper cross at home with rushes!
