DAY 1: At St.Mary on the Hill Primary School

As you know we are in Cork for few days. We hope we can do a great job and our pupils have an incredible experience at the School. We have been picked up by Kevin (the principal) and another two teachers. They gave us a lift to the Hotel and we have arranged everthing asap to go out and have a nice lunch. So far, the experience is really nice as my pupils are under unlimited stimulus and some of them have asked few questions to the teachers, cavin crews, waiters etc... I am glad to see how they are facing to this new situation.
