Here are some ideas for your classroom:

1. Have pupils make their own Saint Brigid’s Cross from paper, straw, or clay to hang in the classroom or at home.

2. Have pupils learn about the legend of Brigid and discuss why she is important to Irish culture.

3. Play traditional Irish music and have pupils dance a jig or reel.

4. Have pupils create a timeline of Brigid’s life, or draw a map of her travels.

5. Have pupils create a mural of Saint Brigid using paints and collage materials.
