Ciara Harrison (2nd Year) writes in Irish about the Seachtain na Gaeilge Concert held in the school on Monday, 14th March.
Bhí Seachtain na Gaeilge iontach again le imeachtaí go leor chun an Ghaeilge a cheilliúradh. Ar an 14ú lá de Mhárta bhí ceolchoirm again sa scoil. Sheinn an grúpa ón mbunscoil poirt agus amhráin albanacha agus bhí said an spéisiúl ar fad. I dteannta chan daltaí ón gcéad agus an dara bliain amhráin Gaeilge dúinn. Bhí cúpla port again freisin ó chúigear cailín ón dara bliain ar an bhfeadóg stain agus Turlough Eccles (Blianta 2) ar an gcláirseach. Bhí sé an bhríomhar. Chan Ms Mulligan cúpla amhrán sean nós agus bhí sí go hálainn. Chan Katie McCrea (Blianta 3) ón triú bliain cúpla amhrán I dteannta le Alex Lai (Blianta 5) ar an bpiano agus Peter Cleary (Blianta 5) ar an saxaphone.
Sheinn muintir Lysagth cúpla port freisin agus bhí said ar fheabhas. Sheinn an t-uasal Eccles na píobaí uilinn agus thaitin sé go mór le gach duine. Chun críoch a chur leis an gceolchoirm chan An Cór agus Shelly Bukspan trí amhrán áille. Lá den scoth a bhí ann. Bhí atmaisféar an bheomhar agus corraitheach sa halla. Bhí gach duine breá sásta bheith ina n-Éireannaigh ar an ócáid sin.
