Christmas Card Printing in Draiocht by 5th class

The girls in 5th class, R.16, were delighted to go to Draiocht in Blanchardstown to participate in a Christmas card printing workshop. Andrew and Sarah were both really helpful in explaining how to roll ink on the plastic template. Then the girls engraved a Christmas picture on the template before putting this image face down on a card. The next step was placing the card in the new printing machine, and turning the handle to ensure the picture was pressed into the card.
We had great fun learning this new skill, and experimenting with designs and colours.
