tSíthigh was alerted to the events by local business man, and great friend always to our school, Mike Parker.

Séan jumped on the chance to cover the story and record a piece for television. The item aired on Tuesday evening, June 2 nd , and a proud school and village community tuned in to see it. Séan was brilliant, he made the whole experience fun and relaxed. He gave everyone time and he enjoyed the scarecrows himself. He spoke to Pádraig, Tina and Maria=85he also spoke to Nora Falvey our Principal who was a bit camera shy but she was there all the time assisting and enabling this to happen. The children attended to their own scarecrows for the recording, scarecrows had been set up with a good distance between them, and Séan spoke to and praised them for their efforts. He showed great interest in them and they thoroughly enjoyed the time. A fantastic memory to have.
