EVA CLARKE
HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR VISITS SULLIVAN

On 15 January 2012 Eva Clarke, a holocaust survivor was met by all of the year 10 pupils eager to hear her story. This is her fourth visit to Sullivan and she has spoken of her ordeal on many occasions so Eva has already developed excellent story telling skills. We hung on her every word in absolute silence as the story of her and her family’s experience of the holocaust unfolded, accompanied by a slide show that added to the atmosphere.

This handsome, illustrated gift book will be welcomed and enjoyed by those associated with Sullivan Upper and indeed by everyone in the wider Holywood community. It tells many of the stories of the people who have attended the school, taught and worked in it or who have been associated with it, down through the years and up to the present day. From the introduction by Dermot Murnaghan to the importance of nicknames for Mark Simpson and early golfing success for Rory McIlroy, there is much here to discover through the recollections and reminiscences of the famous and not-so famous.
