Show Notes
In this episode, we meet a School Warden who is looking after the children of Galway City for almost five decades!
Anne Quinn is a School Warden in east Galway City.
Anne is the city’s longest serving warden with 48 years’ experience guiding our most vulnerable road users on their journey to school. Anne speaks about her role as a warden, what she enjoys most about the role, and how behaviour on the road has changed over her time watching over children on the school run.
San eagrán seo, cloistear ó Mhaor Scoile atá beagnach leathchéad bliain ag tabhairt aire do ghasúir i gCathair na Gaillimhe.
Tá Anne Quinn ina Maor Scoile in oirthear Chathair na Gaillimhe.
Is í Anne an maor is faide atá ag fónamh sa chathair seo agus 48 bliain caite aici ag treorú na ndaoine is mó a bheadh i mbaol ar an mbóthar agus iad ag freastal na scoile. Tráchtann Anne ar a cuid oibre, na nithe is mó a thaitníonn léi faoin gcúram agus faoin athrú atá tagtha ar nós an duine ar an mbóthar ó thosaigh sise ag faire na ngasúr agus iad ag dul idir an scoil agus an baile.
