Workshop Resources

Aishling McGrath set the scene for the day-here’s the Introduction and Final slides: Slides from National Teacher Training 2020

Caoimhe Butterly and Ryma Halfaoui gave the key note speech. It was inspirational! As Caoimhe used much video footage, it was difficult to upload it here-we recommend that you follow Caoimhe on Twitter @CaoimheButterly-there you will find much of her video footage and stories and campaigns to get involved in.
