Oban and District Provincial Mod

The whole of Lismore Primary School travelled to Oban on Sat 5th June to take part in the Oban and District Provincial Mod which took place at Oban High School.

They were entered into three competitions and performed well in all of them.
Nine year old Sophie King sang a lovely Gaelic song in the 9-12 girls solo class. Sophie finished joint 2nd and said she really enjoyed singing - despite only coming to learn Gaelic in the past two years.

Next up was the Action Song where the children performed well. Their comical rendition and actions granted them 2nd place in this competition.

Lastly was the Folk Group competition. The group named "Na Liosaich" comprises the schools two primary 5 pupils and the three primary 7's. They performed two lovely songs joined together by a guitar, a fiddle, a penny whistle and beautiful harmonious singing. They were awarded very high marks on the day and both the adjudicators remarked on what a musical treat their performance had been.

The children had a great day in Oban performing, the sun was shining and they returned to Lismore a happy wee bunch - looking forward to next years Mod!
