The Optimism of Youth

Welcome to our blog. Here we will document the work we are doing on compiling our book "The Optimism of Youth" based on Millennium Development Goal No 2 - Universal Primary Education by 2015. We are being supported in this project by Self Help Africa

Do you have a reflection on your primary school days, a poem to share, perhaps a photograph from those days? Our aim is to highlight the importance of primary education and why MDG No 2 is such a vital goal.

All contributions are welcome and can be sent to towards2015@gmail.com

Fr. Tom Norris

Fr. Tom Norris, a theologian at St.Patrick's College Maynooth,Co kildare sent us a contribution for the book. He explains how memories of his Knocktopher Primary School in Co. Kilkenny are tied to joy for him.
He speaks about learning of hero's, heroines, saints and missionaries - and of long lasting frienship with the Master of the school. Very interesting.
