The Kilian Hymn
The pupils in 4th Class worked with artist Mark Smyth from Kells to create a unique font style which they used to create three displays of the Kilian Hymn. This process involved pupils designing letter fonts individually. Then the pupils worked collaboratively to choose the final font set. The chosen font was used to create an artwork of the Kilian Hymn in German, Irish and English versions.
