We continued on our day trip to Glendalough, a monastery started by Saint Kevin. On the grounds, we explored the area surrounding two lakes including wooded trails and waterfalls. Students were able to appreciate the historical significance of the site as well as the natural beauty.
When we arrived back to campus, students worked in groups to develop skits about historical Irish figures. After group meetings, we joined Niamh for another Irish history class, where we discussed famine and emigration, as well as the Easter Rising of 1916.
