Last Friday we brought all the children to the Heritage Centre in Skibbereen, to visit their Famine Exhibition. Philip O' Regan took us around, helped the children to fill in their worksheets, and told us some very interesting stories about local people who suffered or helped during the famine. He was very impressed at how much the children already knew, as they had been learning about the famine for the last few weeks in both History and Geography. It was a really worthwhile outing! And it's not just for schools, see HERE for more information!
