Famine Art in P6/7

30th Apr 2026
Primary 6/7 pupils have been busy learning about the Irish Famine. They created pastel drawings of famine cottages, inspired by the Irish artists J.P. Rooney and Markey Robinson. The children then used clay to make their own cottages, which came together to form our Famine village.
