Jo planted two different types of potatoes with us. We are planting them side by side to investigate which will be more successful in our soil. One variety we planted is the Lumper potato. The Lumper is a potato variety upon which millions of Irish people depended on until it was destroyed by blight during the famine from 1845 onwards. Planting these is a way of commemorating those who died during the Famine.
Thank you Jo!

The West Mayo / Maigh Eo Thiar Scór competition took place in Kilmeena yesterday evening and our school was very well represented by Áine Conneely, Ellen Dyar, Jasmine O'Malley and Róisín Keating.
Comhghairdeas mór do Jasmine who WON the solo singing category and now proceeds to Scór na bPáistí County Final on Saturday 8th March. Very well done to Áine in the sean-nós dancing category and also to Ellen, Rósín, Áine and Jasmine in the instrumental category which was of a very high standard. There is no shortage of exceptional talent here in West Mayo in music, song and dance. Míle buíochas to the parents of the children for getting them together to practise. Warm thanks to Christina and past pupil Seamie for their musical arrangements and tuition. Go n-éirí le Jasmine sa county final! |
