1916 Celebrations

On March 16th we had a ceremony to raise the Irish flag outside our school. As part of the celebrations commemorating the 1916 Easter Rising every school in Ireland did this.

We read our own school proclamation which we made in assembly.

We also read the 4th paragraph of the 1916 Proclamation.

The oldest boy and youngest girl in the school then raised the flag at midday.

Finally we all sang our national anthem Amhrán na bhFiann.
