CórFhéile Choir Performance

CórFhéile Choir Performance

Congratulations to all the children in our school choir who performed at CórFhéile na Scoileanna this week. They sang four songs: Beidh Aonach Amárach, Peigí Leitir Mór, Country Roads and Hey Mr. Tambourine Man. They received excellent feedback for all songs and the judge’s favourite was Mr. Tamborine Man commenting that “the children all looked so happy” and that the song was her “highlight of the morning”. A huge thank you to Ms. Gogan and Ms. Kieran for preparing the choir so well for the event.
