Jerry Aherne visited Third Class today to tell the children about his Antarctic expedition following in the footsteps of Tom Crean and Ernest Shackleton in their epic voyage from Elephant Island to South Georgia Island. He showed his own photos to the class and pictures of Shackelton’s journey. The children had been learning about these voyages before Christmas and the visit made it very real for them. Go raibh maith agat, Jerry !
