String Quartet Win!

Newsflash!

Our first John Scottus String Quartet took part in a new Music Festival held at Aravon School in Bray yesterday, 6^th June. There were six competitors in the ‘Mixed Ensemble’ contest and the adjudicator was Alan Smale, leader of the RTE Symphony orchestra. Our quartet gave a beautiful performance of ‘Minuet and Trio’ by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – and were placed first!

4th Class Boys Trip to Bray Head

Form 2 Boys Art

"We have been learning about the artist Wassily Kandinsky and have really enjoyed creating our own abstract art"

"We have also been finding out the Claude Monet and we created our own version of The Poppy Fields"

The latest artist that we have been learning about is Vincent Van Gogh and we really love his famous painting of sunflowers, so much so, that we decided to create our own artwork depicting sunflowers through collage!"

THE LITTLE CHOCOLATE LAND

In a little chocolate land

Where the beach is sugar sand

And lollypop trees are flavoured pear

And it all tastes soooo grand.

Houses are built with sweets

And the beds are soft with jelly

The pillows are pink marshmallows

And all is yummy in your belly.

The stones are made of chewy balls

And your couch is sour jelly sweets

The pond is full of chocolate milk

With candy canes for your Christmas treat.

The clouds are made of candy floss

Cola rains from the sky

The snow is made of cold ice cream

And the sun is a warm baked pie.

So come visit if you can

Whether its sunny raining or hail

I am sorry if you don't find this place

But we come to the end of our tale.

THE END!!!
