Trim

Boyne Community School Time Machine, organised by Megan Maguire

Teacher Megan Maguire led the project as Commuinty Organiser in Boyne Community School, Trim. Students ranging from first year to fifth year took part, interviewing seniors in their community and working on unique creative responses inspired by their conversations. The result is a touching project that captures some lovely memories and stories from the participating seniors and paints a lovely picture of the community spirit in Trim.
