Northern Irish Schooldays
Classmates share personal stories and footage of their schooldays in Northern Ireland in a documentary packed with nostalgia, humour and fun.
Classmates share personal memories and footage of their schooldays through the decades as they navigated a uniquely Northern Irish school experience.
Stories range from battling school through the Troubles to the advent of integrated education, suffering school dinners to the trauma of sitting the eleven plus, competing in sports days to school musical performances, coming of age and embracing glam rock with T-Rex, mod culture with the Jam, 1980s pop culture and girl power with the Spice Girls. Other stories include the role a Northern Irish boarding school played in the lives of two students, a Derry school teacher who captured school life on a cine camera and memories on both the agony and ecstasy of the school disco and formal.
Expect lots of humour, insightful reflections and feel good moments.
