| 'The project aroused and excited the curiosity of the school when they were told that they were going to study Ireland. The Irish literature created an excellent learning environment for the children. The range and quality of the activities allowed all children to participate in the Ireland project and produce work of fantastic quality.' |
Catherine Gordon, headteacher, Holy Name RC Primary School in Moss Side, was delighted to report after her teachers and pupils had enjoyed a wide variety of studies and activities relating to Ireland throughout the school year 2004-5, involving the whole school, from Nursery (Art, Literacy and Design Technology) to Year 6 (Art, Literacy, Numeracy, Geography, History, ICT, Design Technology, Food Technology and Music). |
