We then followed the Beara Breifne Way through the fields and came by the ruins of Curragha Church. From there we followed the path of The Stolen Railway along Curragha bog, we passed through a native tree plantation of silver birch, oak and ash and ended up out on the New Line! Fantastic day out!!!

The Grinch that Stole Christmas |
|
It was to a packed house that the children of Redwood N.S. performed their Christmas variety concert show early December.
The show began with a dazzling display of Irish dancing choreographed by dance teacher Stephanie Power of Portumna. The children performed slip jigs, light jigs, heavy jigs, reels but it had to be the boys brush dance that went into Gangnam Style that stole the show! The junior children performed the finale of the dance routines with a gorgeous dance to ‘Santa Claus is coming to town!’
The senior children then performed some beautiful instrumental music on the piano and tin whistles including Mary’s Boy Child, Silent Night, Away in a Manger and the First Noel.
Finally it was time for the main part of the show ‘The Grinch Who Stole Christmas’ which was produced by drama teacher Jared Madden of Banagher. The show was a huge hit with the audience with some very funny scenes. The classroom scene was hilarious with some very witty lines and characters such as snotser Flannery and Bugsy who gave the poor teacher a very hard time!!
Redwood N.S. would like to thank all those who attended the show and everyone who supported the Parents Association raffle afterwards.
