Tuam Lunch

Nineteen teachers enjoyed a delicious lunch at the West Wing Restaurant in March. We arrange lunches in different areas. This is an effort by the association to reach out to retired teachers who may not be able to attend our annual meetings in Galway.

LECTURE by Gordan Darcy March 2011

Lecture:

Natural and Social History of the Burren

Members of the R.T Galway Branch attended an inspiring and thought provoking lecture by Gordon DArcy on the flora, fauna and built heritage of the Burren. Gordon has a profound interest in every aspect of the Burren landscape including the social history – customs, religious rites, farming and the way of life of the inhabitants of the Burren.

The mysticism of the rich echo system of the Burren was captured by Gordon through his in-depth knowledge and extensive archive of exquisite slides.

We now look forward to a day’s outing with Gordon in May 2012.
