Gardaí in the Kilkenny District participated in marking 100 years of An Garda Síochána by providing snaps of the different members of the station doing day to day tasks over a 24-hour period.

An Garda Síochána has been marking its anniversary this year with a series of public events and publications, and the ‘Day in the Life’ project marks the exact day a century ago to the day that the first Garda recruits were attested in the RDS.

Those first recruited as Gardaí passed out at a ceremony in the RDS, Dublin on February 21st, 1922 and the Garda centenary continues to be celebrated with a series of local and national commemorative events and initiatives which will coincide with the key historical dates.

Some of the material was published on the national Twitter account while the rest - published by the Garda Síochána Waterford/Kilkenny/Carlow page - can be seen here. Click through to see the pictures.
