Memorable Performances from Avondhu Compeitors in Scór na Páistí
- Apr 20,2026
The finals of the Cork Scór na Páistí were held recently in the Eire Óg pavilion in Ovens and
performers from the Avondhu schools performed with distinction having come through a
tough competition locally over the previous weeks.
Pride of place goes to Seán Óg Fraher from Kildorrery who won the Solo Singing
competition and in so doing retained the title that he won in 2025.
The Shanabllymore Figure Dance team of Eimear Coates, Chloe O’Neill, Saoirse O’Keeffe,
Lily-May Whelan, Ollie O’Grady, Caleb Cronin, Fintan O’Leary and Darren Murray finished
runners up in their competition.
The Killavullen quintet of Anna Dorgan, Muireann Dorgan, Danny Howard, Conor Dunne
and Liam Ryan finished in second place in the Instrumental Music competition.
In the Set Dancing competition Araglin represented by Carly Delea, Shona Daly, Lauren
Kenneally, Caoimhe Hynes, Oisin Russell, Tadhg Kenneally, Aoibheann Daly and Sadie
Delea finished in the runners up position.
A sincere thanks is due to the teachers in the national schools of Avondhu for the huge
amount of work and effort that they put in year after year in the preparation of the young
boys and girls for the Scór na Páistí competitions.
