She had two sisters and two brothers. Heavey attended the new Presentation school which had opened in the town the same year she was born. She started in 1911 and finished in 1924, at age 16. She went straight into University College Galway to study classics for her degree, gaining her BA in 1927. She did a Higher Diploma in Education and an MA in classics together in 1928. She was multilingual, speaking English, Irish, German, French, Italian, Hebrew, Latin and Greek. She also had considerable talent in Mathematics. Heavey was awarded the NUI travelling student scholarship and spent two years travelling and studying based in Munich.[2][3][4] Heavey was appointed to the Classics department in University College Galway in 1931. She eventually became the Professor of Classics (lecturing on Latin through Irish) from 1958 to 1977 and Dean of Arts from 1970 to 1976. She looked after her mother until her death in 1970 at which point she gave a home to her niece Ann, Ann's husband and their two children. Despite retiring, Heavey continued to be a lecturer in the University until she felt ill. She died three days later on 15 February 1980.[2] Heavey bequethed a donation to University College Galway to establish the Athenry Prizes and there is an annual Margaret Heavey Memorial Lecture.[3][5][4][6][7][8][9][10] Bibliography
