(Henry our duffy Hero)

                               Duffy Assembly

Today St Patrick's School attended Duffy assembly. Mrs Twomey introduced Henry to us and gave us a little bit of information about him and his life.

He is a role model to younger ones because he came to persuade us to read books. (Henry our duffy hero) told us to read funny books because it will cheer us up when we are feeling sad. He also told us that Hero’s fight for what they believe in, and he believes that books can change people's lives.

Henry told us a story about how he met a girl at the library and he walked up to her, and when she turned around and looked at him, he was distracted by her enormous Juju Lips, flawless hair and brown eyes.

Books gave him the confidence to speak up and this  also changed his life. From books he grew in courage to talk to the girl with confidence even when he was shy.
