The pupils from Bunscoil na mBráithre Críostaí (Christian Brothers’ Bunscoil) made their annual trip to the Market Place Theatre recently for Feis Ard Mhacha, the local Irish Language Speech and Drama festival. In keeping with other years the pupils from Rang 1 to Rang 7 were entered into five different public speaking competitions with other Irish Medium Primary Schools.
Réamonn Ó Ciaráin, from the Feis Ard Mhacha organising committee, welcomed the pupils to the event before they recited their various Irish language poems in front of an audience including parents, teachers and members of the local community. To their credit, the pupils did exceptionally well leaving with no fewer than 11 gold, 13 silver and 13 bronze medals.
To add to this success, a great number of pupils were awarded certificates of commendation for their efforts. Dónall Mac Giolla Chóill, one of the adjudicators, finished of the day by praising the Bunscoil pupils for the excellent way they delivered their poems and remarked on the hard work put in by their teachers in preparing them for the event. Comhghairdeas!
