Scoil Mhuire 50th Anniversary 25th of May 2007














Reflection after Mass I dreamed I stood in a studio And watched two sculptors there, The clay they used a young child's mind And fashioned it with care One was a teacher, the tools she used Were books and music and art One was a parent with a guiding hand And a gentle loving heart Day after day the teacher toiled With touch that was deft and sure With the parent laboured by her side And polished and smoothed it o'er And when at last their task was done, They were proud of what they had wrought For the things they had moulded into the child Could neither be sold or bought And each agreed they would have failed If they worked alone For behind the parent stood the school And behind the teacher, the home.
