- On St Stephen's Day boys go around from house to house with a wren on a bush, these are called Wren Boys.
They usually recite a piece of poem about the wren such as this :-
The Wren, the wren, the king of all birds,
St Stephen's Day she was caught in the furze,
Although she is small her honour is great,
Cheer up old lady and give us a treat.
Then the people of the house usually give the Captain of the boys some money. When all the money is gathered, the Captain divides the money equally among them but he is allowed to get more than the rest.
On St Patrick's day every one wears a sprig of Shamrock to honour him.
It is the custom to make pancakes on Shrove Tuesday
On Easter Sunday it is the custom to go around gathering eggs.
On Hallowe'en eve the children put a number of apples in a tub and try to catch them with their mouths.
