Bodhrán Making (March 9th & 10th)
On Monday and Tuesday of next week the entire year group will be taking part in a bodhrán making workshop. This is organised with the Irish Department as part of Seachtain na Gaeilge. More details below:
Michael Vignoles takes his wonderful ‘hands-on’ workshop to schools around Ireland, teaching TY Students how to make and play a bodhrán. The students are supplied all the materials to make a complete bodhrán (ie frame, goatskin, crossbars tacks etc) in their mission is to complete a bodhrán. After the bodhrán is complete the students are shown how to personalise their bodhrán with a design of their choice followed by a lesson on Jigs and reels.
