The National Museum of Ireland at Turlough Park, Castlebar is inviting teachers and students to engage with culture over the spring term through a great new range of free workshops and tours for primary and post primary schools.
The programme starts with a return of the popular ‘Bumbly Wings and Crawly Things’ workshops on Thursday January 23. There are two sessions available for this fun, biodiversity and art inspired workshop, aimed at fourth to sixth class pupils.
