Primary Scools Feile Programme Design Competition

Primary Scools Feile Programme Design Competition

Following an invitation to Primary schools to take part in the Feile Art Competition to Design the front cover of Feile Dhoire 2010 official souvenir programme, over 100 entries were received (top 3 from each school) and after great deliberation the Judges Mr Liam Horner and Mr Aidan Hegarty chose the top 25 entries.

The twenty five finalists were all invited to the prize ceremony in Owenbeg last Wednesday, where all their entries were displayed. The event was attended by members of Feile Dhoire Committee and officers of Derry County Board, along with parents and teachers.

Schools’ coordinator Peter Donnelly welcomed all the attendees, and after giving an excellent presentation to the children detailing the importance of feile, he declared the toughest job was choosing the final three winners.

The successful winners announced were: 1st place Owen Martin St Columbas P.S. Kilrea who receives a Doire kit, along with £150.00 voucher courtesy of Richmond Centre Derry, as well as an invitation to attend the official launch of Feile Dhoire 2010 in the Guild Hall in Derry on Thursday 27th May 2010. His design will also be used as front cover of Feile Dhoire 2010 programme, and viewed nationwide.

Joint second place winners were Caoimhe Reynolds, Termoncanice PS Limavady and Meghan Mc Gillian, St Mary’s PS Draperstown, who each picked up a Doire kit and £75.00 voucher courtesy of Richmond Centre Derry including an invitation to the official launch of Feile Dhoire 2010 in the Guild Hall in Derry on Thursday 27th May 2010.

Thanking the judges and all for attending the event, Peter Donnelly concluded proceedings by commending the schools in Doire for their continued efforts to promote Gaelic games.
