Ireland will go to the polls on October 26th this year to elect the President of Ireland. Michael D. Higgins has decided to run for a second term in office.
This is a fantastic opportunity for our CSPE students to see Democracy in action. Hopefully we will have lots of class discussion and activities about the potential,candidates, their manifestos and performances in debates.
Some classes aim to run their own 'mock elections' to see if they can predict who the winner will be! Voting in elections is a key element of being an active citizen, which we study about in CSPE, as well as the concept of democracy.
