  1. Old Schools

    Share Share Post
    John Kelly had a school on the boundary between Limerick and Tipperary. The scholars were seated on an old trunk of a tree trimmed out with a hatched and raised off the ground with stones. The scholars wrote on slates taken from the roofs of houses. The subjects taught were Grammar Spelling and Writing.
