There was lots going on in Killeshandra N.S. this week! We had the dress rehearsal for our nativity play. We can’t wait to perfom The Hoity Toity Angel next Tuesday evening at 7.30 pm in Killeshandra Parish Church.
The Middle and Senior Rooms were in Dublin on Wednesday for their Peace Proms rehearsal. We headed off on the bus to the National Indoor Arena at the Sport Ireland Campus in Blanchardstown. It was a very interesting to have look around the amazing sports facilities there!
There were over 1000 children at the rehearsal, but there will be more than 2000 in the choir at the Concert in February! Greg Beardsell, the Peace Proms conductor, lead us through the songs we will be performing.
We still have lots of learning and practising to do before the big day, but we picked up lots of tips and advice from Greg to help us along the way. We’re really looking forward to our Concert on Sunday 4th February 2024 in the Simmonscourt Arena at the RDS!
We also completed our 4 week Olympic Movement Breaks challenge today – we have really enjoyed learning more about some of Ireland’s Olympic athletes and their sports, as well as getting active every day.
During Assembly this week, we presented our awards for the Reader and Handwriter of the Month for November, as well as our Excellent Effort award – well done everyone!
