It brought joy to my heart to hear that this morning as I returned to school. The children used to say:
"Good morning Mr. O Coigligh and may God bless you."
So I have taught them to say:
"Dia Dhuit Mr. O Coigligh."
and:
"Slan leat, Mr. O Coigligh."
They have really taken to it and now many say it to me in the playground. I met one of the kids downtown before Easter and she said it to me there.
Oh joy! It really reminds me of home. I am thinking of doing some song and dance with them later in the year, to develop the cultural side of the exchange.
