ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This book has been a wonderfully collaborative effort with assistance from parents, teachers, principals and, most importantly, our wonderful students. It has been a great honour to work on More Whiz Quiz. I would like to say thanks to all those parents, students and teachers that assisted in providing questions. I would like to extend a special thanks to the students and staff at Glasheen Boys National School and Glasheen Girls National School in Cork for their questions. I would also like to thank Miss Clark at Glasheen Boys School for her assistance with the Irish questions. We have included questions about every county and at every level so kids of all ages from junior infants to 100 will be able to participate at some level. We at the Cork West National Parents Council are very pleased to be able to provide another Whiz Quiz book for all to enjoy and hope it will be fun. I would like to thank Marthe Mainerich, committee member, for co-ordinating this project.

Thank you for your support.
