THERE was great hustle and bustle in Caherleaheen National School on Wednesday as grandparents got a chance to come and visit their grandchildren at school.
Grandparents Day is celebrated as part of Catholic Schools Week where the older generation are invited to the school.
Their main hall was split in two so that that grandchildren could take turns asking the grandparents questions about what it was like for them growing up and going to school.
Catholic Schools Week is an all-Ireland annual event which invites Catholic schools to give expression in a special way to the ethos of Catholic education. It is a celebration of Catholic schools throughout Ireland, North and South.
