Peace Proms 2023
On Sunday 5th February our 5th and 6th Class travelled to the RDS in Dublin to take part in the Peace Proms.
The children performed with the Cross Border Orchestra of Ireland and a host of top soloists in a concert on the day. The children sang with a choir of up to 3,000 children and worked with one of the UK’s leading professional conductors – Greg Beardsell. It was noisy but brilliant!
