Alive, Alive O!
We all went to the big hall.
We sang our songs and said our poems.
As Gaeilge freisin!

Today, March 9, we did a Seachtain na Gaeilge event from 1:oo to about 2:30. The band and the audience, and, of course, Alexandra College were great! I was there playing the keyboard in the band and I thought everybody played and sang Greatly, with a capital G!!! My personal favourite instrument was the harp. What was yours (if you were there)? Unfortunately, the concert didn’t last until 3:00 🙁 . However, the concert itself was great. I can’t wait to update you with more info from school!
Today we went to the hall and saw a play about 1916. There were two people in our class in the play. The drama was about a young boy called Jimmy Conway who witnessed the 1916 rebellion as it happened. The drama showed Easter Monday 1916 when the rebellion took place. The actors were great and we felt we were part of it. The narrators were very good too. We learned a lot of facts about The Rising and we enjoyed the drama.
Thank you for reading! We will be back with more information and pictures about the 1916 celebrations in Sallins National School.
Goodbye!
Chloe and Charley.
When will Ireland be free?
We are taking a stand!
Proud to be Irish

Today, Thursday the 10th of March 2016, our school celebrated the 1916 Rising. There were good dramas done by pupils from 2nd to 6th class and the actors were really good. They put great plays. One drama told a story of the rising and we felt involved. We are going to do the dramas again tomorrow! Thank you for reading goodbye.
“Charge!”

Job well done!
