Did you know that only ELEVEN people in Ireland have ever won a Nobel Prize and that TWO of them attended St. Columb’s College?
We celebrate these two remarkable men today as part of Nobel Prize Day.

The late Luke Kelly of the Dubliners later asked Heaney to write him a song about his feelings on the journey.
Heaney penned "The Road to Derry"
