Comhghairdeas mór leis na buachaillí agus na cailíní go léir ó rang a ceathair, a cúig, agus a sé a ghlac páirt i Scór na nÓg tráthnóna inniu. Bhí taispeántas den scoth againn a léirigh an tallann dochreidte atá sa scoil seo. ​Bhí clár éagsúil againn inniu, ina measc: ​Amhránaíocht agus ceol traidisiúnta ​Damhsa agus aithriseoireacht ​Filíocht ​Taispeántais chróiseála agus scileanna rugbaí ​Bhí sé thar barr an tacaíocht a thug na daltaí dá chéile a fheiceáil. Bhí atmaisféar iontach sa scoil i rith an lae agus na páistí go léir ag spreagadh a chéile. ​Chun críoch bhríomhar a chur leis an seó, chan muid go léir le chéile chun tacaíocht a thabhairt d’fhoireann na hÉireann don chluiche anocht in aghaidh na Seice. ​ COYBIG! Éire Abú!
