    I'm not sure if this belongs in History but.............

    http://www.duchas.ie/en

    Approximately 740,000 pages (288,000 pages in the pupils’ original exercise books; 451,000 pages in bound volumes) of folklore and local tradition were compiled by pupils from 5,000 primary schools in the Irish Free State between 1937 and 1939.

    Some interesting stuff,

    My mother R.I.P. contributed to this folklore collection as a young schoolgoer.
    I was able to get a copy of her contribution from the Folklore Office at U.C.D.

    this was a great idea - I thought it was earlier - late twenties.

    Must check it.
