WATCH: Learn About The Burning Of Cork Through Minecraft!

4th Class in Blarney Street CBS are here to teach you about one of the most significant events in the history of Cork!

We have to admire the creativity of the children and teacher in fourth class Blarney Street CBS!

During this three minute video we learn about how the burning of Cork occurred through the medium of popular video game Minecraft! 

A dramatic reading of the tale of Tomas McCurtain and Terence McSwiney's fate sets the scene for the story with images of the Black and Tans setting fire to the city including buildings on Patrick Street and Winthrop Street. We learn about the burning of Roches Stores and the Munster Arcade which is Brown Thomas today.

We really enjoyed this video. Well done to everybody involved!
