BORDER DISTRICT EISTEDDFOD 2019
Last Tuesday, the Drama and Italian sections of the Border District Eisteddfod took place.
Students chose their poems and ensured they were well prepared by practising. Whilst this was a daunting experience for some of the students, the confidence and experience they gained from performing in front of an audience was extremely beneficial.
Congratulations to all the performers in the various sections.
