The event was co-ordinated by Miss Paula Daly, Head of Music and Performing Arts. Parents, students past and present, staff and local community filled the College’s Assembly Hall for what is one of the College’s most popular events.
The students entertained a captive audience, who enjoyed a repertoire of song and dance. Speaking at the event, Miss Daly said : “We areimmensely proud of our students here at Integrated College Dungannon
and we are thrilled to showcase their impressive range of talent.”
“In addition to the Drama, Music and Performing Arts classes provided by the College, the department has eight peripatetic music tutors who offer an extensive range of tuition in singing, guitar, woodwind, brass, strings,
piano and drums.
Miss Daly thanked the tutors, parents, and guardians of the students. She said: “We are grateful to all of the tutors, parents and guardians of the students for the unfailing support they give to the students and the
department across the academic year.”
Plans are already underway for a range of Music and Performing Arts events in the new school year and the College looks forward to nurturing and celebrating the talents of students at Integrated College Dungannon.
The Evening of Music and Song is always very popular with students and, no doubt, between now and the next event, they will be getting in plenty of practice in their free time!
