5th and 6th class participated in the South Tipperary Co. Council Heritage Project on the Great Famine.
5th Class' work concentrated on the Cahir area and the children's workhouse in Tincurry. Stories based on the time provided a present insight of the lives of the victims of the Famine.
6th class' work focused on the effect of the potato blight, growing methods of the time, models and art work symbolic of the Great Famine.
At the prize giving presentation in The County Museum in Clonmel on Tuesday, Feb 24th, 5th class won the Class award and 6th came 3rd in their category. Congratulations to all involved and it was a most rewarding project to be involved in.
