JohnSpillane

On Thursday the 30th of April, we had a very important visitor. John Spillane a famous traditional Irish musician came to our school. He sang live for Mr. Howard’s and Mr. Pitt’s fourth classes and Mrs. Ruddock’s and Ms. Coughlan’s fifth classes.

He sang Baidin Fheilimi, Peigin Leitir Moir, Trasna na dTonnta, Seamuisin, Oro, Se do Bheatha Abhaile, Beidh Aonach Amarach, The Rattling Bog and the Wild Rovers. We had learned some of the songs beforehand so we could sing along with John. He also taught us The Rattling Bog. There was a great atmosphere in the room. Everyone was clapping and singing along with John. It was a brilliant day.
