Cork Schools Heritage Project 2010

We had a visit from Kieran McCarthy, a local historian, on Friday last November 26th. He came to help us with our project on The Bridges of the River Lee. There are thirty bridges in total but as a class we will focus on about ten of the more prominent ones such as North and South Gate Bridge, Patrick's Bridge etc. Over the Christmas holidays I will be asking the children to visit some bridges in the city centre and answer some simple questions about them. As part of their fieldwork, sketches and photos would also be very useful. Thanks for your support in this.
