The mighty Claddagh School Band was on hand to help with the launch of the International Peace Run, which was launched in Eyre Square today. The event, which aims to promote peace and harmony across the world, will see participants run all the way from Galway to Minsk in Belarus.

Ms. Fahy, Mr. Kelly and Ms. Browne were also on hand to perform a piece of music that Ms. Fahy had composed especially for the occasion - she even received a token of appreciation from the organisers!

Well done to all the children who - as always - did us proud.
