Sister Julie Watson, the Congregation Leader of the Presentation Sisters is the guest for the final episode of the special series that took us from the closing of the school doors at South Pres to what we know and enjoy today as Nano Nagle Place.

She has had a fascinating career, having spent 24 years in Pakistan doing what she was passionate about, which was teaching and it is there that she started to fully appreciate Nano Nagle and was quite moved as the children spoke about Nano in the present tense.

Nano Nagle Place is beyond all her expectations and she views it as a "living legacy" of Nano's work and life.

She speaks about the now, the future and importance of "walking lightly on the earth and harnessing the energy of love"

In this episode we chat with Programme Manager of Nano Nagle Place, Danielle O'Donovan.

We chat about her love of museums since early childhood, we probe into why the Nano Nagle story may have disappeared from history for quite a while and we also talk about the near blank canvass that Danielle had to work with when she and the team created the very special, award winning visitor experience.

We also talk about the other activities and initiatives that she oversees and some of the plans for the future

In this episode we chat with the incredibly passionate, and "make it happen" Naomi Masheti, who is the Programme Coordinator for the Cork Migrant Centre at Nano Nagle Place.

She talks about their work with migrants in Cork, many who are living in Direct Provision Centres.

She explains how It always starts with listening, understanding their many emotional and practical needs and then creating the activities and programmes and the enabling conditions to address these and with staggering results.   

This is so similar to the work that Nano Nagle herself did hundred of years ago.

Siobhan Allen, Head of Ministry at Nano Nagle Place talks about "that moment" on her first day of school when she decided that she wanted to be a teacher.

She chats about her career working in "special" schools, coming out of semi-retirement for this role and how rewarding it is overseeing the work of the Men's Group, the Lantern Project and the Cork Migrant Centre helping those in need just as Nano Nagle had done.

She lives the "Deeds not Words" ethos of Nano Nagle, like so many others at Nano Nagle Place.
