It was a very exciting morning .  Finally the moment we have worked very hard for over the last eleven weeks arrived , our first performance for a live audience. Ms Bridge's class were first to perform.  A special thank you to Niall's dad who came in specially with Niall's banjo. Niall did a solo turn for the sea shanty What Shall We Do With a Drunken Sailor.  Well done to the students who intoduced the items .  We had several excellent  double bass players , Lee, Seosamh, Joseph. Our leaders Hayley, James , Ada , Ben, Claudia and Eyosa did a great job in keeping everyone on track .  Emmanuel in Mr Connolly's class and Dylan in second class added some percussion on conga and ocean drum .



Ms Darmody was in the audience  as our special guest today .

Be sure you get a copy of the end of term mega quiz from your teacher.


I am looking forward to seeing you all after half term when we will be learning lots of new things to do on the violin and bass.  Can't wait!
