CBOI Peace Proms
On Sunday 2nd of February, the girls from 5th Class performed at the CBOI ‘Peace Proms’ concert in the RDS. The Cross Border Orchestra (CBOI) was established in 1995 as a peace initiative and is composed of over 100 exceptionally talented young musicians from all over Ireland and Northern Ireland. CBOI has played an important role in building and nurturing vital cross border and cross community relations and is regarded internationally as a flagship peace initiative. CBOI is best known for our Peace Proms programme which was established in 2002. Peace Proms is a free resource and choral education programme for Primary Schools. Over 35,000 Primary School children from all over Ireland actively participate in Peace Proms each year and perform with the Cross Border Orchestra of Ireland. This was an amazing afternoon full of music and dance. A huge thank you to Ms O’Reilly, Ms Corcoran, Ms O’Connor and Ms Kilroy who accompanied the girls.
