PUPILS of Moyderwell Mercy Primary gave a huge welcome to two new ‘students’ who enrolled for the day at the school on Wednesday.
Great excitement filled the school with the arrival of twin lambs who are just nine days old from teacher, Mr Denis Griffin’s family farm in Clahane.
They began their day in Junior Infants but they learned quickly and made their way up along the school until they reached 6th class. They wished to stay a little longer with their owner Mr. Griffin in 2nd class where they learned about tens and units.
The boys and girls of 2nd class used FaceTime on their school ipads to see ‘Mommy Sheep’ at home on the farm. Everyone enjoyed the experience and the lambs who were named Billy and Bailey by the children went home to their ‘Mommy’ at 2.40pm.
