A girl in our class named Nicole went to see the President.She told us a lot about her.We learned about her in our History book.We decided to write her a letter to see if we could visit her.We put a lot of effort into our letters.It took us a while but it was worth it.We were hoping to get a letter back.We got a letter back from President McAleese.In the letter we got a DVD and a signed picture of President McAleese.We tried to watch the DVD but it was in Irish so it was a bit too hard to follow.So my teacher called Áras an Uachtaráin and asked for another one of the DVDs.We watched the DVD the day we got it and wrote down some interesting facts.That night we wrote an essay about Mary McAleese,it was fun.Here are a few facts about Mary McAleese.Mary McAleese was born in 1951 in the Ardoyne area of Belfast.Before becoming President of Ireland she was a professor in Trinity Colleage Dublin.Mary McAleese held the same position as Mary Robinson.She also worked as a journalist and presented programmes on RTÉ.
