"Irish Society Beaker" ‘I went to the Irish Society School in Coleraine. On the Queen’s Coronation in 1953, The Honourable The Irish Society presented the pupils of the school a Coronation beaker and a mug. I still have this beaker, though there is a chip out of it. Whenever I got it I was very proud to have got one. We got a wee folder with it and inside it said “Schooldays are happy days”. They were for me, I liked Primary School’.
