The poster should be A3 (you can Sellotape two A4 pages together if you want) and can be completed using pencils, pens, markers, crayons, twistables, chalk, pastels or paint.
If you want to do some research on the theme of valuing water there are youtube videos you could watch:

Oíche Shamhna, Oíche Shamhna,
Báirín, breac, báirín breac,
Úlla is cnónna, úlla is cnónna,
Is maith liom iad, is maith liom iad.
Our sixth classes really enjoyed practicing their cycling skills with Dr. Bike!
Our school community is happy to invite you to learn a little more about our super school. Welcome to St. Brigid’s!
Our recently created crest and motto demonstrate our vision and aims, through words and images. Our goal is to ‘promote the full and harmonious development of all aspects of the person of the pupil: intellectual, physical, cultural, moral and spiritual, including a living relationship with God and with other people.’
We can only do this with the continued assistance and support of parents/guardians, families and friends of our pupils, along with the wider community.
We hope that our website will demonstrate a little of the exciting work and activities carried out in St. Brigid’s and will provide our visitors with some information about our super school community.
