On Wednesday 11th of April. We had our Fáinne exam. The Fáinne is an oral exam. I had to read a short story about a well which was sourced from our folklore work. Other students played musical instruments such as the piano, fiddle, piano and accordion. A student also sang. We provided refreshments for both examiners. Before the exam, we had to research "the schools collection" on duchas.ie. We were given certain topics from schools that we had to type up. Mine included marriage customs and also short stories. I found it very interesting to see the customs from many years ago. From what I researched they have changed quiet a bit. Another task involved having type up topics in our own words. Ms.Conroy then put these into booklets and had them on display for the examiners to look at while we spoke.At the end of the exam I received my Fáinne badge which I feel was worth the work for. It will be very beneficial for my Leaving Cert especially my oral.
