P7 display ‘All about Northern Ireland’.

28th May 2021

As part of the NI100 centenary celebrations we have been looking at 100 years of ‘our wee country’. We explored the build up to the creation of Northern Ireland, from the plantation at the start of 1600 to the creation and signing of the Ulster Covenant in 1912. This all paved the way for the creation of Northern Ireland in 1921 when there was a possibility the whole of Ireland was going to be granted Home Rule. With the creation of Northern Ireland 6 of the 9 counties of Ulster stayed under British governance.
