On Friday 20th April we went on a school trip. We went into Dublin to see the National History Museum.We went with Ms Leonard’s class into the National History Museum. We all split up into fours. The first place we went was to the Bog Bodies first they were not my cup of tea. You could see their skin and all that.  My favorite thing was the Egyptians because the were all under the floor in glass it was really good that’s what we did in the National History Museum we did more but I can’t  remember – my bad !!

After we came out of the National History Museum. The first thing we did when we came out was the Dail. Which was beside the Museum first we went to see the Politicians in the Dail chamber. They were saying vote Yes and vote No. I don’t really understand all that stuff because I am a child I don’t know all that  vote Yes and vote No. After that we saw some paintings of the past Taoisighs. Then we went were shown around the Dail. I found it really interesting, all of it .My favorite place in the Dail was the Seanad Eirean because the room was so graceful on the ceiling. We got to go into it and sit down and have a look around it. Then we went to Stephen’s Green for our lunch, it was funny  because the birds were following us becausee we had food! All the girls were screaming and the boys were laughing at us!

So that’s it really, I hope you enjoyed my story of the school tour

On the 20th of April 2012 we went to the National Museum and the Dail.In the Museum we saw lots of artefacts like the Vikings and Bog Bodies and the Ardagh Chalice and the DerrynaFlan Chalice and weapons. Then we saw the Eygptian artefacts.

Then we went into the Dail and went into the gallary above the chamber to watch some people talk. Then we went outside of the room and this girl was talking about the Dail and what the Dail is about.

After that we went into the Seaned The Seaned was used as a ballroom ages ago. After we went out of the Seaned we saw a map of Ireland.

After the Dail we went to St.Stephens Green to have our lunch. There were lots of birds there because we were beside a lake.

It was really fun!!!

On Friday 20th of April all four 6th classes went on a bus into Dublin.  We went to the National History Museum.  In the museum we saw the remains of Viking and Norman bodies.  We also saw weapons and what they wore.  One of the most important things was the Ardagh Chalice. We also saw the the Derrynaflan Chalice and they are both very ancient.  Then we had a little snack and went to the Dáil

When we got to the Dáil we went up to where the Government sits and they talked ab out the referendum.  Then after a while we got a tour around the Seanad and the Dáil.  It was very interesting.  Then we went back to school.

I had a good day!
