Áine Brosnan, an archaeologist working with the Heritage in Schools scheme, visited the school on Friday October 10th. She wore a costume which was a replica of a tunic which was found in a bog and would have been worn by a Chieftain's wife in the 1500's. She traced a timeline from the Stone Age to Christian times and had some interesting artefacts to show us including a replica of an arrow head, flint stone and knife. It was very interesting and we hope to follow it up with a field trip and further class work.
