JSS Music Recital, 10th December

Úna Ní Chanainn presented a magical recital for John Scottus parents on the 10th of December in the refreshment room of Northumberland Road. This is a slideshow to give you an idea of the range of talent and interest our small school contains. Children from both Secondary and Primary schools played their pieces beautifully and with confidence. We were treated to performances of the TWO JSS string quartets and a cello quintet in addition to individual pieces. We even had a double bass & cello piece performed for us.
