Primary 7 at Portna

Primary 7 enjoyed a visit to the Lock Gates at Portna just outside Kilrea this week as part of our ‘Dream Machines’ topic in school. We had an interesting and entertaining talk about the history of the gates and why they were needed along the River Bann and shown around the workshop where the gates are made. We then made our way outside to the gates and we watched them in action, with a boat making its way through too.  It was a fabulous morning out. The weather was super and we even were given an excellent ‘goodie bag’ to take home!

A huge thankyou to Julie, Thomas and Stephen from Waterways, Ireland.
