Last night boys looked up information on the buildings used during the 1916 Rising. Some great information and interesting facts were reported to the class today on Boland's Mill, Jacobs Biscuit Factory, Dublin Castle, Liberty Hall and The Four Courts.
Some boys found out that relatives of theirs had worked in the biscuit factory while another relative of a boy was killed while going to Boland's Mill to get bread.
Tonight boys are going to research some of the people involved in the build up to and during rising. We watched part of the RTE documentary on 1916 in class and identified some key people. The leaders identified are
Group 1: Padraig Pearse and John Redmond
Group 2: John Devoy and Thomas Clarke
Group 3: Countess Marckievickz
Group 4: James Connoly and Eoin McNeill
Thomas McDonagh and Roger Casement
