1st XI go out to St Andrew's

Despite a great show of commitment and energy, the senior girls hockey team were beaten 2-0 by St Andrew's College in their replay of the quarter-final of the Leinster Cup which was played at Booterstown last week, having drawn the original match at High School 3-3. Photos are from the match.

French play

On Monday 29 January, the school was visited by a French theatre group who performed a very interesting play "Le Porte-bonheur". Some of the students in our school participated voluntarily with great enthusiasm and some very amusing costumes! The play was a romantic comedy with a touch of magic and was a good way to learn some more French. The four actors conveyed the plot very well, (but what was with the fireman?) and it was enjoyed by everyone. Thanks to all the teachers who organised it.

Lundi dernier, un groupe de thèâtre est venu à La High School. Trois acteurs et une actrice une ont donné pièce Fransoise. Il s’agissart d’un groupe d’amis qui veulent aller en Irlande pour voir un match de rugby entre l’Irlande er la France, mais tout d’abord il faut qu’ils gagnent un peu d’argent. Ils ne peuvent pas décider comment le faire. Finalement, ils décident de s’inscrire àun concours de talent qui offer aux gagnants une grosse somme d’argent. La pièce était très agréable et quelques élèves ont participé à la danse et ont joué des roles. Je voudrais remercier les actors pour un spectacle chouette, et les profs qui l’ont organize.
