On the 9th of January, the children of 5th and 6th had to attend a Confirmation commitment mass in Windgap church. Father ‘O Farrell said the mass. It was the same as every other mass, except after the Gospel, Father O’ Farrell called out the names of all the 5th and 6th class children, making their confirmation to the altar. Then we handed our commitment certificates to the priest. But before we handed over our certificates the priest asked all the Confirmation children to stand up, then he asked us some questions and we responded with 'I do' or 'we will'. Then he asked our parents to do the same and they also had to answer some questions. After that mass continued as normal.

Peace Proms 2016        
Windgap N.S. has been busy the past few weeks preparing for the annual peace proms.
Led by our music teacher, Mrs. Malone, ‘Peace Proms’ is an event that brings students from the North and South of Ireland together. It’s when all the school choirs gather into one place and sing and perform in front of a massive  audience. This year ‘Peace Proms’  is back in Cillín Hill, where it was previously staged. Previous  songlists have  included hits like ‘Grease Lightning’ and ‘World In Union’.
This year we are singing different songs like ‘Together’, ‘Ireland’s Call’ and ‘Imagine’. These are only three of the 72 songs, we have to sing for Peace Proms. Not everyone is going but the people that are, will hopefully will have a spectacular time at the concert. I know I will.

CEOL AGUS CRAIC REPORT

 Last Friday 20/3/2015 we held ‘Ceol agus Craic’ in Windgap parish hall. Everybody from Windgap N.S.gathered there. First, we sang ‘An Hocai Pocai.’ Then First and Second class played  ‘I’ve Got a Skipping Rope” on the tin whistle. It sounded great. After that Junior's and Senior's sang “Currigh nua”.And you would know they had practiced! Then third and fourth sang ‘Flaoina Soilse’ (sky full of stars). After that, third, fourth, fifth and sixth sang “seo linn” and “an mbalach ar fad”.The junior's and senior's left at 1:50 pm because they had to go home at 2 pm. But the party didnt end there! When they left, fifth and sixth taught third,fourth,first and second the siege of Ennis dance. It was great fun and a laugh. Everybody loved it,and enjoyed themselves.

THE END
