It&#8217;s also where Patrick Sarsfield arrived after negotiating the Treaty of Limerick, which was quite relevant to our Limerick group! He is buried in Luy, Belgium.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Through my contacts in Brussels I was able to organise a meet &amp; greet with the Operations Manager, Christina Geary. She brought us on a tour, was excellent with our students and gave me her card for contact in the future. It&#8217;s not a college anymore she said, nowadays it&#8217;s an institute which caters for many groups such as businesses, schools &amp; politicians. Apparently a significant amount of the secret peace talks re The Good Friday Agreement happened there, which was very interesting to our students. Accommodation &amp; food is available there for the visiting groups.<\/p>\n<p>Irish Transition Year groups stay there, business &amp; political party think-ins are organised there. There was a group from Deloitte in residence today for a think-in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0349.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0349.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0348.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0348.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0347.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0347.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0346.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/gcluimnigh.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/img_0346.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inniu th\u00f3g m\u00e9 seisear scol\u00e1ire GCL s\u00edos go baile Leuven chun cuairt a thabhairt ar an gcol\u00e1iste c\u00e1ili\u00fail a buna\u00edodh ann sa bhliain 1607 (bliain na nG\u00e9anna Fiana).
