Good Luck and Enjoy! RE Prayer to St 14 2 Columba Year 10 Project Our City Aim: Create a piece of art based on a part of our city that brings you happiness. Materials: Whatever materials you have to hand. In this activity, we’d like you to create a piece of artwork based on a part of our city that brings you happiness. For example, this place could be a library, your favourite shop, the place where you meet up with friends. It could be the home of your favourite person, the place where you walk your dog or even an outdoor space. If you’re happy there, have great memories of the place and it’s located within the city then we want to see it! There are no limits to the materials or colours you can use to create your artwork, just use whatever you can find. This might be pencils and paper, paints, clay, LEGO, a camera, whatever you want. Be creative, have fun and we’re looking forward to seeing all your favourite places. Look at the examples below for ideas. Things to remember: Colour Composition Materials 3 Year 10 Project Our City 4 Year 10 Project Our City Drama Task: Create a Drama ‘skit’ about our City The difference between ‘a skit’ and a drama performance, is that skit is a short comic performance while drama is a composition, normally in prose, telling a story and intended to be represented by actors impersonating the characters and speaking the dialogue. The verb skit means to make fun of. Celebrating our City What we need to do; You are going to create a ‘skit’ to celebrate our City. We need to think of funny things about Derry or funny things that have happened to you. If you want to do a short monologue (one person speaking about their thoughts and feelings) or a story about Derry – from the past from the present (or comparing the two) or describe the city to a tourist or to someone who doesn’t live here – that is absolutely fine! It would be great to hear any of your stories or adventures! Things you may want to think about: Could you rewrite a song to tell people about Derry? Could you dress up as a character from Derry and talk from their point of view? What are your favourite parts of the City, what makes Derry special to you? Drama Ideas Characters the way we talk Funny things people say Things that happened during lockdown in Derry the kind of What makes our city different from informal language we use? other cities Think about youtube videos and tik E.g. ‘Me head’s fried’ toks you have seen over this time I’m thinking of Derry slang here. Funny things about our city? Can we do it in pairs small groups? Derry has always been famous for Music, Art and Theatre too! Remember social distancing! And especially the warmth and friendliness One person could start the drama of the people AND the CRAIC! then someone else could reply on a 5 different video Year 10 Project Our City Year 10 Our City English Task Task: Write an article for a newspaper or online news site about our city. The article will be based on an interview with someone from, or connected to, Derry. You can decide what you want the article to focus on. Some ideas include: -growing up in Derry (interview anyone who grew up in our city) -the history of Derry or an area within Derry. -an important building or tourist attraction (if you know someone connected with the Guildhall or The Walls, for example) -a part of the cultural life of Derry (if you know someone involved in a club, pastime, hobby or sport in the city) -a business within Derry e.g. if you know someone who is connected with a well- known shop, bakery, fashion label, café, restaurant… -a Derry artist -a Derry musician or band -a Derry charity or charitable project 6 Year 10 Project Our City Success Criteria: -You must ask the person you are interviewing at least 10 questions. -Write a list of questions before you interview him/her. -The questions should be open questions (questions that begin with ‘who, what when, where, why, how or explain/describe’). -You will either need to record the interview or make notes while the person is talking. -Write an introduction explaining who the person is and what he/she has to do with our city. -Write out the question asked and the person’s answer. -Write your headline (title) last. -Include images and check the spelling, grammar and punctuation of your article. -There is no word limit but the minimum is 500 words.

The Archaeology, Architecture and Cultural Heritage chapter relates to the proposed N14/N15 to A5 Link Scheme which involves the design of a road linking the A5 Western Transport Corridor (WTC) in Tyrone to the existing N15 at Lifford in County Donegal (refer Figure 3.1, Volume 2). 10.2 Methodology 10.2.1 Guidelines and Policy This Chapter is compiled so as to be compliant with the guidelines set out in legislation in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Northern Ireland The relevant legislation in Northern Ireland which protects and recognizes the archaeological heritage is The Historic Monuments and Archaeological Objects (Northern Ireland) Order 1995. The Planning Service has produced a series of Planning Policy Statements which set out the policies of the Department of the Environment on particular aspects of land- use planning. Each Planning Policy Statement applies to the whole of Northern Ireland and their contents are taken into account when development plans are being prepared. The contents are also material in the case of decisions on individual planning applications and appeals. Planning Policy Statement 6: Planning, Archaeology and The Built Heritage (PPS 6) specifically sets out the planning policies of the Department of the Environment in relation to the protection and conservation of archaeological remains and other features of the built heritage and advises on the treatment of these issues in development plans.

  • County Donegal Railway Joint Committee
    Irish Railway Factsheet: County Donegal Railway Joint Committee CDRJC Crest, 17 August 1959 With the ending of World War II and the lifting of petrol and oil rationing for road vehicles, it was not long before the County Donegal Railways Joint Committee (CDRJC) was in financial trouble. The Stranorlar to Glenties branch was closed to passenger traffic on 13th December, 1947, while special goods trains continued to operate over the section until September 1949. The line finally closed on 10th March, 1952 and lifting began the following year, being completed in 1955. Runaways and derailments were not unknown on the CDRJC in those post-war years, generally without too serious consequences. However, a serious accident on occurred 29th August, 1949 which resulted in the death of three persons. Railcar 17 had left Donegal bound for Ballyshannon, without the driver being in possession of the staff for the section. About half a mile from the town, in a leafy cutting, the railcar rammed steam locomotive 10 which was hauling a special goods train in the opposite direction. The driver of the railcar was killed instantly and two passengers died soon afterwards. Despite the introduction of two additional railcars in 1950/51 (numbers 19 and 20) and the arrival of three coaches from the closed Ballycastle branch of the UTA, traffic, except for excursion trains which remained well used, continued to decline unabated. On the freight side, container services were introduced in 1955. These carried CIÉ containers routed between Dublin and Letterkenny and their use reduced the time taken between the two places by up to 24 hours.

Swanton Abbott 069 269 474 M. F. Barnwell, Aylsham 0263 732767 FOREWORD by the Commanding Officer Lieutenant Colonel R. M. Chisnall OBE The “ Pompadours in Londonderry” is in part a souvenir of our final tour in Northern Ireland. It highlights what has been achieved during a hectic 15 month tour as well as giving a feeling for Battalion life in Londonderry. It is also a detailed record of the Pompadour's last tour as we leave the order of battle on 5th October 1992 and, therefore, the booklet is more than just a souvenir; it marks the end of an era. Without giving a mass of statistics about workrates and details of finds, it is perhaps worth just highlighting that the tour was a particularly hectic one with a 16 hour day in the harder Republican areas being the norm rather than the unusual and with separation levels at 65%. It is of immense credit to the soldiers that they maintained their operational edge throughout and remained cheerful even with the announcement that the Battalion was to conduct an early Arms Plot move and then merge within 6 weeks of departing Province. An indication of what the Pompadours were required to do can be seen in the half a million car checks and 2,000 patrols carried out by each Company, let alone the numbers of searches, rummages, patrols and vehicle check points.
