First Year students in Class 1AP were involved in an e-Twinning project in the run up to Christmas with four European schools. Schools from Romania, Spain, Germany, and Poland created Christmas Boxes and filled them with biscuits, sweets, handmade Christmas decorations and Christmas cards outlining the different holiday traditions and celebrations in each country, which were then posted to each participating school . Students in Presentation College created boxes filled with Irish biscuits, small souvenirs and postcards. There was great excitement for Class 1AP when the first two boxes arrived from Germany and Spain.

This has been a great opportunity for students to learn about different cultures and to make new friends in foreign schools.
