On Monday we had a percussion workshop for the day. A man called David came in to our school and brought a jembe for each of us to learn on. This workshop was very fun as we got to learn about the background of the jembe and got to make our own music. We learned about what the jembe was made of which is wood, goat skin and animal fur.

On Tuesday we had our first two classes and then after break we went to the cinema to see Selma. The movie is about a Martin Luther King's campaign in Selma to insure equal voting rights. The famous march was from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in 1965. After this we went home and Eve, Ellen, Eimear, Hannah, Alison and I went to Peter Pan on ice in the Bord Gais because they had won tickets when we went to elf. It was very enjoyable and the tricks they did on the ice, on ropes and with fire were all amazing. It made all of us want to become professional ice skaters. We saw the proformers outside when we were going home but we were too afraid to go up to them.
