To begin our St. Patrick’s Day and weekend celebrations Mr McElroy delivered an assembly which the children displayed their wonderful talents of singing, traditional music and Irish dancing. The running order for the day started with our instrumentalist group showcasing their wonderful talents playing Irish tunes on the tin whistle and guitar. The rest of the staff and pupils were treated to tunes including McAlpine Fusiliers, Flat Water Fran, Drunken Sailor, Rattlin Bog and The Irish Rover….Amazing!
A huge well done to our Primary 1-7 pupils on each of their class performances.

We all came together at the end and the whole school sang Ireland's Call and Amhrán na bhFiann to conclude our celebrations. We had a great day celebrating our Irish Culture and our Patron Saint.
Huge congratulations to all involved and thanks to all our families for the great efforts to turn our boys and girls out in their ‘Glas’ (green). We wish all our school community a very Happy, Peaceful and Joyful St. Patrick’s Day.
