Students from St. Macarten’s College and Monaghan Collegiate School have been involved in a Peace III project over the last few months in which they have been researching people from Co.Monaghan who served in World War One.

We researched soldiers from both Protestant and Catholic traditions who fought and died in the Great War.

Twenty students and four teachers visited Belgium in late March and experienced a day as a soldier, visited battlefields, trenches, dugouts, wargraves and museums.
