4th class have been busy making history topics.
They chose the topic for themselves and spent 2 weeks researching and compiling their findings.
John Ruddy, the historian came on Monday and talked to the class about their ideas and gave some tips.
Here's some of the first projects that have been shown to the class.
Annabel interviewed Ms. Prior to learn more about our school.
Clara made a thatched cottage and explained how and why these were very common in Ireland long ago.
Roland presented a slideshow about the spread of Christianity and used maps to show how it travelled across the world.
