Tullamore triplets take first step in world of education

Many children began a new phase of their young lives last week, with the beginning of term in local montessori schools.

Three of those children starting on a new journey were three year old triplets Conor, Clodagh and Cian Rigney of Park Avenue in Tullamore, who began attending Care Bears Montessori School in Puttaghaun last week.

Speaking to the Offaly Independent Margaret Molloy of Care Bears Montessori said the three are “thriving”.

She said they and their young colleagues come in to a stimulating environment every day in Care Bears, which she said she believes is the most important step in early childhood education.

“Our philosophy at Care Bears is 'Mol an oige agus tiocfaidh si',” she added, and with all of that praise going around there's no doubt little Conor, Clodagh and Cian will do just fine.
