On Tuesday Fourth Class attended a screening of 'Revisiting the Banshee' at the Belltable Theatre. The film presented a new collection of folklore on film featuring stories told by children from St. Mary's and Thomond Primary schools. The screening was part of the Bualadh Bos festival. Here are some comments from the children:
'My favourite part was when the children talked about the Banshee'. Elizabeth
'I think the film was good and the children were very good at telling the stories '. Evelyn
'The stories were funny and some were sad'. Aaron
'It was really interesting and exciting to hear the spooky stories and superstitions'. Rinayah
'One superstition is to never pick up the Banshees comb or she'll appear'. Leo
'We heard about the superstition that if you step on a crack you'll break your mothers back'. Rafae
