On Wednesday 19th December 2012 there was a Nativity at Port Ellen Primary School. Primary 1/2 did the nativity with nursery, we thought it was very good they remembered all their lines. They were clear and they enjoyed doing the play, they liked singing the songs and the audience laughed, we really enjoyed it. It was really good Taylor was Joseph and Sarah was Mary and it was also known as the the lucky owl and Rebecca was the Owl.
Islay Band Concert
On Tuesday 18th December in the Islay High School hall was a fantastic Christmas band concert! The primary school band performed and the High School band performed. There was some solos and duets and great Christmas carols sang by the high School choir and everyone else in the audience. There was some traditional music by a high school band. All the kids seemed to be enjoying themselves performing and it certainly got the audience feeling very Christmassy.
