John Crowe came to our school

John crowe small 

Last month John Crowe came to our school.

John Crowe is a musician.

John had guitars, a piano, bass guitars, balalaika, electric drum set and a Spanish guitar. He explained how the instrument worked  to us and played music on them all so we could hear the different sounds. We sang a song and he recorded it onto the computer and he played it back for us to hear it. Then he went on Ejay. Ejay is a programme on the computer that you can make up your own music from hip hop to house. He let some of the children play some of the instruments.

We had great fun that day.

Grease

On Wednesday 25th January 5th and 6th class went to Our Lady’s Secondary School to see Grease the musical.

 The T.Y students were performing a musical called Grease. The musical started at half 10. They had a cartoon introduction which they took from the film but they added their faces using the computer.

Then the musical began. There was lots of singing and acting. It was very good and very funny.

We had a great time and we had a lovely lunch too.

Going To “Grease”

On Wednesday the 26th of January, 5th and 6th classes went to the Convent to see their musical, “Grease”. We left the school at 10:00am.

 

When we arrived we all sat down with the other schools in the convent hall and waited for the  musical to start.

 

At 10:30am the musical started. Manus Coyle was “Danny” and Erin McHale was “Sandy”. Mark Doocey was the radio presenter. It was very funny! There was a lot of singing and dancing in it. We all enjoyed it!

 

When it was over we all waited in the hall to be called for lunch. We had to wait in a very long queue for ages. We finally got to the top of the queue and got our lunch. I had chicken curry and it was very nice!

 

After the lunch we went outside to get on the bus to go home. We got back to the school at about 1:30pm. We had a very good day!
