We are back after the Easter break with a story about a very significant Easter in Irish History. It was of course 1916 and this episode tells the story of the Rising in a different way. Ruairi comes home from school and tells his family that he had been learning about Irish History in school and his Granda, who is a bit of a Seanachaí proceeds to tell him the real story and so our story begins in earnest. 

Originally released as a Stop Motion Animation with LEGO video this film has now recorded over 100,000 views on YouTube and is used in classrooms around the country as a great resource.
