On Wednesday 19th December, 1st Year ukulele Music students and vocal soloists performed with 3rd Year students who participated in the lunch time music group. 

They combined their talent and during lunch performed with all classes in the National School to celebrate Ms. Claire Harrington’s retirement. The primary school students and 1st Year students sang Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's "Somewhere over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World". What a special send off. A powerful and very well-rehearsed performance from all the singers and ukulele players. It was very enjoyable for all who attended the ceremony.
