Córfhéile is a non-profit making, voluntary organisation that aims to provide an opportunity for children in primary school to perform in a non-competitive music festival. The children that perform in the Córfhéile do so for the enjoyment of singing, for the love of playing music or participation in a play or drama. Córfhéile is about developing confidence and a feeling of self-esteem for having performed in front of a large audience. The Córfhéile took place in the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght at the beginning of March. More than 4000 children took part over nine separate shows during the week and the sense of achievement that they get from performing and seeing others perform was priceless. The Banna Ceoil Scoile and Daltaí R1 took to the stage on Wednesday evening the 4th of March at 7:30pm. And what a night it was. The atmosphere in the venue was electric. The venue was packed to capacity with excited children and proud parents. The Banna ceoil played exceptionally well. They had put a lot of hard work and practice into their repertoire and it certainly paid off. Thanks to the teachers who teach & manage the banna ceoil. This was the first time Rang a hAon have participated in the Córfhéile. The children were so excited and they sang their hearts out when they got up on stage. They sang three songs with gusto; Báidín Fheidhlimí, Beidh Aonach Amárach & Trup, Trup a Chapailín and they recieved a huge clap of appreciation from the audience when they finished. Buíochas leis na múinteoirí ar fad a d’ullmhaigh na páistí don Chórfhéile.

Eagraíocht dheonach gan brabús is ea Córfhéile na Scoileanna a bhfuil sé mar aidhm aici an deis a thabhairt do pháistí bunscoileanna páirt a ghlacadh i bhféile ceoil neamhiomaíoch. Glacann na páistí páirt sa Chórfhéile le taitneamh a bhaint as an amhránaíocht, as an gceol uirlise nó as an drámaíocht. Tugann sé deis do na páistí gnéithe éagsúla den cheoltóireacht fhóirneach a chur os comhair an phobail, rud a chuireann go mór le forbairt féinmhuiníne agus féinmheasa. Bhí an Córfhéile ar siúl sa Lárionad Náisiúnta Cispheile i dTamhlacht ag tús mí Márta. Ghlac breis is 4000 páiste ó bhunscoileanna ar fud Bhaile Átha cliath páirt sa Chórfhéile idir an 9 seó a bhí ar siúl i rith na seachtaine. Bhí Banna Ceoil na scoile agus daltaí R1 ar an árdán oíche Chéadaoine, 4 Márta ag 7.30pm. An-oíche go deo a bhí ann. Bhí an t-atmaisféar sa halla do-chreidte. Bhí an ionad cispheile lán go doras le páistí a bhí ar bís agus tuismitheoirí bródúil, mórtasach. Bhí an banna ceoil ar fheabhas. Bhí an-chuid cleachtadh agus oibre curtha isteach acu ó Nollaig agus ba léir sin ó chaighdeán an cheoil a bhí le coisteáil uatha. Ba í seo an chéad uair ag Rang a hAon páirt a ghlacadh sa Chórfhéile. Bhí na páistí ar bís agus chanadar in ard a gcinn is a ngutha nuair a bhíodar thuas ar an ardán. Chanadar 3 amhrán; Báidín Fheidhlimí, Beidh Aonach Amárach & Trup, Trup a Chapailín agus fuaireadar bualadh bos ollmhór ón lucht féachanna nuair a tháinig siad ag deireadh a gcur i láthair. Buíochas leis na múinteoirí ar fad a d’ullmhaigh na páistí don Chórfhéile.
