It's hard for me to believe, but tonight is my last night in Ireland. I know I'm really going to miss the people I've met. I've finished my work in the school and was very sad to have to say goodbye. The school said goodbye to Lindsay and me during assembly and we kindly thanked them for giving us the opportunity to work in their school. I think they were sad to see us go.
The school gave us a very nice going away present and I have every intention of keeping in touch with some of the teachers I worked with. I'm going to email them asking for advice and ideas when I start teaching this year. And as for my Irish family, I'm going to miss them terribly. I'm quite emotional about it really and I think we are all in agreement on one thing - my coming back to visit.
Here are a few more pictures from the school and my latest trip to Killarney National Park. Goodbye Ireland and I hope to see you again.
As I'm sure you may already know, potatoes are pretty important to the Irish. This is a picture of 4th class maintaining their potato plant which is for a potato growing contest. The plant's name is Spud Bob.
Killarney National Park. Absolutely gorgeous.
