The Big Dig
The children in 1st class took part in an archaeological dig on Thursday the 6th of June 2024. They School of Irish Archaeology brought a mobile Viking House replica on site and the children were able to explore the Viking world through a simulated archaeology dig. As they dug through the site, the children unearthed Viking treasures and artefacts dating back 1,000 years. They learnt about the lives of our Viking ancestors as history was brought to life by qualified archaeologists. They children really enjoyed the workshop. Thank you to Ms O’ Malley for organising it.
