This week Fifth and Sixth Class visited the Famine Exhibition and Jackie Clarke Museum. The children got to view many historical artefacts and discovered lots of information relating to an Gorta Mór in the Civic Offices Ballina. Afterwards we had a lovely lunch in the gardens of the Jackie Clarke Museum before getting a guided tour through the many exhibitions which included photographs, newspaper clippings, books, 1916 and 1917 proclamations and a Wolf Tone cockade. A great day was had by all.
