Catholics in Ireland and around the world celebrate Mary the  Mother of Jesus during the month of May. One tradition has been to create a May Altar in your home. We would usually have one at school too. Ms Joyce found the attached information about how you could make a May Altar yourself if you would like to.


This is an article about May traditions in Ireland which is an interesting read
