Oban Pupils Present Prize-winning Gaelic Drama

Pupils from Rockfield Primary School’s P1-4 Gaelic classes performed a prize-winning play at the recent Argyll and Lochaber Gaelic Drama Festival, held in Oban’s Corran Halls.

The children presented ‘An t-Each Acrach’ about a very hungry horse, and were delighted that their performance was awarded the prize for best costumes and props.


The annual event is organised by Fèisean nan Gaidheal, and schools from Mallaig, Fort William, Acharacle, Mull and Oban entertained the audience with a varied range of plays.

The children worked extremely hard to learn their words and the songs that were woven into the story. They contributed lots of ideas for the play, and helped make some of the props. They particularly enjoyed dressing up as the characters in the story, and being able to present their play on the big stage at the Corran Halls.
