Schools Reunion
Barnes, Clar, Copany, Drumnahoul and Tullynaught 2005Plans for the Schools Reunion to be held from the 29th July to 5th August 2005 are now at an advanced stage. A Schedule of Events has been drawn up and should be finalised shortly.
A book will be produced giving information about each school and including Lough Eske, Speerstown, Golard and Leghony.
We are looking for photographs or any other kind of memorabilia to include in the book or to use in the Exhibitions, which will be held in each Centre. A personal memory of school days is especially needed for the book. We will copy and return any photos.
We will have photographs, copies of school registers and any other type of memorabilia we can find on the schools in each Centre. Information on the Families who attended the schools is also planned.
