Our visit to Newgrange

May

May 1, 2015 by Coppertops Administrator

We went to Brú na Bóinne Heritage Center in Co.Meath. There we enjoyed the exhibitions and a film. Carmel was our guide at Newgrange. She was impressed with all we had learned about Newgrange. Inside the passage grave we saw Neolithic spirals and diamonds. We also saw graffiti  and names from the 1800’s.We saw a demonstration of the sunlight entering the chamber. We saw the corbelled roof packed with small stones. To finish up we had a lovely picnic lunch in the sunshine. We enjoyed a great game of catch around the standing stones. Then it was back to school on the bus. We had a super day.
