Thank you so much to @KerryCoMuseum Educational @ClaudiaKohler22, archaeologist Sonia Smith and Ancient Ireland reenactor Helena Stackpoole for engaging and educating our first year students during @MounthawkMercy #historyweek
The best day of history week - historical costume day! @MsStacyS @JCHistTeacher
The first of my history-themed Christmas cards arrived into class today; all based on Chapter 13 of @MsStacyS and @histforall's @GillEducation book making history.
I'm eagerly waiting for someone to take advantage of Parnell's beard with the caption "Ho Ho Home Rule"

@MaddenClare is a fountain of knowledge on how to teach English in the classroom. Thanks to @edcentretralee for organising a great webinar, I've learned so much tonight.
@IrelandAMVMTV will you be running your Christmas short story competition for young people this year?
Just a reminder that when Shakespeare was quarantined because of the plague, he wrote ‘King Lear.’

Shared by the very generous @MsStacyS as a fun online class for First Year @JctHistory

Super idea @nmcdunne
We are living through history, I have asked my students to make a time capsule of their experiences/findings - this will be an ongoing project during school closure! #histedchatie @CorkETSS #COVID19
I think that @MsStacyS, @histforall and @CorkHTA are the most generous subject support on Twitter! Thank you for making our lives so much easier x

I am in awe of this students’ visual revision notes on the character of Scout Finch in #tokillamockingbird

Another inspiring day at the @SoroptiTweet event at the beautiful Killarney House today. As always, I left inspired by the voices of powerful young women promoting change and a better world.
4 students represented Mounthawk in the Soroptimists public speaking comp in Killarney: Laura, Alimat, Olamide and Ephrata
Laura Foley was chosen as one of two students to advance to the regional finals in Limerick in January.

Great advice for teachers from Patsy Keane at @CorkHTA teaching conference in @corkairhotel this morning
I LOVE the #titletales that my First Year English students in @MounthawkMercy created for homework last night - so creative and insightful.

Proud teaching moment: check out my @MounthawkMercy student who won the senior category and overall category at @poetryireland 2018. You can watch her recite at 3.00. As we begin a new school year I'm excited to introduce Poetry Aloud to a whole new cohort

Niamh is the reason why we resurrected the @great_marathon this year to raise funds for @kerryhospice.
Only 11 days to 26 miles, 26 counties, 26 hours!
Please support this great cause here: give.everydayhero.com/ie/gre…
It gives me great pleasure to introduce Niamh O'Carroll - the driving force behind this month's Great Irish Marathon
I am running in memory of my mom Patsy who passed away in November from cancer.
Please donate to @kerryhospice here: give.everydayhero.com/ie/gre…
Over €1000 in donations already for @kerryhospice! Blown away by people's generosity. If you want to support my mad marathon (26 miles in 26 counties in 26 hours) you can donate at this link: give.everydayhero.com/ie/gre…
Wow! Our donations have just surpassed €1000! We are halfway towards our goal.
The Great Irish Marathon Team are totally blown away by everyone's generosity. We are so thankful for your support of the Kerry Hospice… instagram.com/p/ByYT_oECUqX/…
