Legends of Our Land: Tales from Bunscoil Chríost Rí
Legends of Our Land: Tales from Bunscoil Chríost Rí is an exciting creative initiative that empowers children to explore their creativity through illustration and storytelling. Children's book illustrator Celina Buckley will facilitate a series of workshops in Bunscoil Chríost Rí, culminating in a professionally produced children's book, featuring artwork and narratives created by the students. The book will be launched at a celebratory event, with copies printed for every classroom in the school, the local library, and made available online as an e-book. This initiative showcases the voices and talents of the school’s children to the wider community, creating a tangible cultural artefact that celebrates the unique identity of the school community.
By giving children a platform to share their stories and creativity, this project boosts their confidence and sense of achievement. It strengthens connections among students, parents, and local residents, promoting well-being through hands-on creative engagement and fostering joy and collaboration. Legends of Our Land promises to have a meaningful and lasting impact on both the school and the broader community.
