La Glas.. Another successful day of FUN! :D

On Wednesday, 16th of March, the annual La Glas was held by the prefects in the school. Each year group was, as usual, given a theme for dressing up. Transition year were given the theme of "Aer Lingus". In the beginning, when we heard what our theme was we weren't too pleased. We didn't know what to do for this theme.

However, we made a fine aul job of it in the end! :L

On Tuesday night while we were waiting to go no stage and on the bus journey home we all chipped in our different ideas to produce another great performance! A few girls dressed up as cabin crew, two girls + Ms L dressed up as pilots, one girl dressed up as an air traffic controller and everyone else were passengers - business people, tourists etc. Myself and Davina dressed up as Batman and Robin. Now, I know what you're thinking; Batman and Robin?! What on earth has that got to do with Aer Lingus?!

Well, here's how it went:
Leah had made a cd with different background sounds on it. The first was an announcement bell, like in the airport. When this sounded, all of the passengers lined up and one of the cabin crew members checked tickets and passports etc. Then, a warning sound went off. Two of the cabin crew were under cover terrorists. Everyone jumped down onto the ground screaming, while the terrorists tied up the three pilots. While all of this was happening, myself and Davina were hiding behind the crowd. Then, all of the passengers made a "Sssshhh" sound and they pointed towards where myself and Davina were hiding, making the crowd turn to look! The theme tune to Batman came on and with that, Batman and Robin jumped into the centre, saved the pilots from the terrorists and tied up the terrorists!
It was such a fun act to do and we had the judges of the parade laughing the whole time, along with everyone else! I think everybody really enjoyed our act.
Before the parade of classes though, there was an Irish dancing performance. Me, being an Irish dancer, was asked to dance. Anyone that was dancing lined up and took their turn to do a step. Again, everybody enjoyed thaat also. For the last ten minutes of lunch everyone danced around to ceili music enjoying themselves and the Irish culture.
It was another fantastic day, especially for us TYs with our outstanding performance!

Niamh! :D
