 On Tuesday, 15th November, the Army Band will play in Halla na Féile for students from the local primary and secondary schools.
During this interactive session, they will listen and learn about the composition of the different sections of the band, the role of the conductor and the compilation of a performance programme.

 History will be brought to life when Michael Moylan of Irish History Live visits 11 of the primary schools in and around Cashel this autumn.
Rather than putting history behind dusty glass in a museum, Irish History Live brings history before your very eyes with vibrancy, encouraging interaction and enabling you to actually handle replica historical artefacts.

 Julie-Rose carves, sculpts and designs puppets, masks, costumes for her own productions. Commissioned by the Abbey theatre Storytellers Theatre for the Star Child production, she designed the prize winning giant puppets Molly and Leopold Bloom for Bloomsday. She has worked with the Ark and many other companies and community events, both north and south. Her shows have been performed internationally in Lahore, Casablanca, Liege, Slovenia, Covent Garden and Dublin.
Julie-Rose will facilitate a puppet making workshop for the children of Scoil Chormaic and a puppet show for the children of Scoil Aonghusa.
