Fourth class are learning about an historical hall in Waterloo as part of Discover Cork - Schools Heritage Project. Here are some of the things we have learned so far:
Nuair a bhí siad ag damhsa cuireadh 3 amhrán mall ar siúl agus ansin bhí 3 amhrán tapadh curtha ar siúl. Nuair a bhí ceiliúradh sa Bhlárna bhí damhsa mór le haghaidh gach duine sa halla. Bhí sé a 3 a chlog nó a 2 a chlog ar maidin nuair a chríochnaíodar!!
When people were dancing three slow songs were played and then three fast songs. When there was a big celebration in Blarney everyone went to emer hall. They didn't finfish dancing until two or three in the morning!

Bhí an-chuid rudaí ag tarlú sa halla. Bhí sé mar halla damhsa. Bhí sé in úsáid mar scoil agus fiú mar phictiúrlann.Bhí sé tógtha i 1948.
A lot of things happened in the hall. It was a dance hall and a cinema. It was built in 1948.

Istigh sa halla bhí ceadúnas speisíalta ag teastáil chun a bheith ag ól alcól.
A special license was needed to drink alcohol.
