It has passed in the blink of an eye. From excited Year 8s on their History trip to Dundrum Castle to the confident young women about to embark on life after school. @assumptionlive
Public toilets, Anglo-Norman style. Thankfully, our girls located the modern facilities😂@assumptionlive
Glorious weather, beautiful locations and fantastic youngsters. What more could History teachers want? Big thanks to John de Courcy for leaving us this monastery and castle. Big thank you, once again, to Mark Davis and his courageous weapons enthusiasts.@assumptionlive
Honouring Ireland’s Saints in the Choir of Inch Abbey. The birds seemed to want to join in. Well done 8A, 8D and half of 8E @assumptionlive

A great day at the Battle of the Boyne Centre, Co. Meath, with some of our Year 9 Historians. Looking forward to heading back with the remainder of the year group tomorrow! @History_AGS
Tomorrow. Thursday 8 June 9A & 9D along with half of 9C will be going to the Boyne. Apologies for the mistake in the online letter which has caused some confusion. On Friday it will be the turn of 9B & 9E and half of 9C.@assumptionlive

A personalised chocolate bar - how thoughtful. Can’t bring myself to eat it though. Thanks to my wonderful students, Rachel and Caitlin.@assumptionlive
Rachel and Caitlin. Never have two studied so hard in the History hub. They will be missed. @assumptionlive
Goodbye to my wonderful A2 History class. Thank you for the lovely gift.@assumptionlive
Those GCSE and A Level History pupils going to Berlin in October, please take a photograph of your passport (picture page) and email it to Mr Toner or Mr Proctor. @assumptionlive
‘1930s Germany’ has very much been in the news in recent days. Good thing our pupils in years 10 and 11 have been studying that period, in the detail they have.@assumptionlive
Our Year 10 pupils have been learning about the ‘Shoah’ and the human behaviours which facilitated it. This is fixed annually in the Year 10 programme of study to coincide with the world remembering.@assumptionlive
The Year 8 History classes have been working hard on their personal history road maps. Here are some wonderful examples from 8A and 8E.@assumptionlive
A huge loss to History education in these islands. Dr Eamon Phoenix RIP.@assumptionlive
So sorry to hear of Frankie Wilson’s passing. Friend, colleague and inspiration to so many young footballers (Soccer and GAA) across the north. @assumptionlive
