Presentati­on and St Patrick’s pupils all set to entertain you

-

IT’S as regular as clock work and is looked forward to every year as much as Christmas itself. The annual talent show is on January 25, 2019 when the pupils of Presentati­on Secondary School and St Patrick`s Secondary School combine their talents for a display of wide ranging and impressive performanc­es.

Once again it promises to be a highly entertaini­ng show with friends, family, current and former staff, and many others gathering early to get the best seats in the house for what is an annual sell-out event.

This year`s show will open with the Presentati­on School Choir and a variety of other acts to follow from story-telling, traditiona­l and modern music, dance and song. Needless to say, the school’s amateur drama group will entertain you with a few comedy sketches along the way.

After last year`s original take on a special production of Cinderella by the first years, everyone is looking forward to an equally entertaini­ng sequel this year. Moreover, the 2018 crop of first year pupils are looking forward to showcasing their special talents, and no doubt patrons are in for an extremely entertaini­ng evening in St John`s Hall.

“Our students are so talented on so many levels and this show gives them the opportunit­y to shine in ways we don`t see in a classroom or sporting setting,” said Katherina Broderick, Principal of Presentati­on Secondary School.

““The show itself is hugely beneficial for the students as it builds their confidence and allows them an opportunit­y to choose the areas of entertainm­ent that they like to be involved in themselves, while it also teaches them to work as part of a group. It’s good for them in so many ways. There’s also great credit owed to the staff. The evening is a great source of pride to both schools,” said Katherina.
