Teach na mBocht / The Workhouse

16th Mar 2018

I ndiaidh dúinn cuairt a thabhairt ar Dhaonpháirc Uladh-Mheiriceá, chaith muid lá ag foghlaim faoi Theach na mBocht i dTeach Ranfurly agus i Leabharlann Dhún Geanainn. D'fhoghlaim muid faoin smacht a bhí ann taobh istigh de Thithe na mBocht, chomh maith leis an obair chrua a bhí i gceist. D'fhoghlaim muid faoi Theach na mBocht a bhí i nDún Geanainn fadó agus fuair muid amach go raibh sé suite taobh leis an otharlann.

After visiting the Ulster-American Folk Park, Rang 7 spent a day learning about 'The Workhouse' in Ranfurly House and Dungannon Library. We learned about the discipline that was instilled in the children, as well as the hard working conditions that they faced. We learned about the workhouse in Dungannon which was situated where the South Tyrone Hospital is now.
