Moment in Time: A day in school in Camross NS in 2001

These old school photographs never fail to disappoint.

Alf Harvey’s trip to Camross NS in March 2001 certainly yielded some wonderful images.

Smiling faces, games of chess and a just a general happy atmosphere greeted him that morning.

And that was before they went out playing hurling at all.

Teacher Talitha Horan is there and 18 years later, she is now the principal in the school.

Watch out for the 2018 Laois senior hurler of the year Ciaran Collier who is among the many familiar faces who make an appearance.

Check out all of the pictures below:
