Did you know that as Irish people we are also European citizens?
We have been members of the European Union since 1973.
Last October, the two 6th classes visited the EU buildings on Dawson Street to learn more about how the European Union works. The workshops were highly informative and the girls enjoyed the trip very much, especially the fun quiz at the end! They also received lots of resources to explore more about all the different countries who are member states of the EU.
Here is a list of all the 28 member states of the European Union.
Austria
Belgium
Bulgaria
Croatia
Cyprus
Czech Republic
Denmark
Estonia
Finland
France
Germany

Hungary
IRELAND
