Today we’ve celebrated St Patrick’s day at school. We have been working the whole week in the class. We’ve learnt a lot about who St. Patrick was and his life in Ireland, he is believed to have introduced Christianity in that country. We’ve also learnt about the leprechauns who are little men from the fairy family, they are shoemakers and they are known to be very unfriendly. They take care of their pots of gold and it is said that if you see a leprechaun, he is forced to tell you where his pot of gold is.
The shamrock is also very important in this celebration because it is also believed that St. Patrick explained with it the mystery of Trinity to the Irish people, God is three-in-one: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
