Today's guest is Niall Mulvey, principal of St. Brendan's National school in the beautiful seaside town of Loughshinny, Co. Dublin, Ireland. Niall has been working in Loughshinny for 25+ years and has always embraced laughter in the classroom. In this episode we explore how to combine laughter and learning as well as the joys of working with children.
Niall explains how, once children understand the parameters of acceptable behaviour, laughter can enhance the educational and social experience for the children and teachers alike.
