A Little Update..

It's been a while since I posted a blog post, so I thought I would update you! This year is going so quick, it feels like yesterday we were on our Halloween break.
 November has been a quite month, so unfortunately we have had a lot of normal classes.. :( At least it's almost Christmas(Only 38 days..!)

Although this month has been quiet, meaning no trips, we are busy in other ways. We have all been busy with Mini Company, and most of the groups are in production and selling. Our Mini Company, Why Knot, is a clip that you can attach to any phone, to keep earphones untangled. Mr. Walsh is helping us to make it in the tech room, and we already have a few orders :)

In Home Ec, we have been busy making and decorating our Christmas cakes. We are also doing our Irish and History projects. We are almost finished our first block of Work Experience. I have enjoyed working in the Credit Union each Wednesday. Next week, I have a block week in the Mater Hospital, which I am really looking forward to :) I will finish up here.. stay tuned :)

Fun Walk 2015

On the 2nd of October 2015, we had our annual Fun Walk. This takes place at the end of Friendship Week, and involves each tutor group making up a dance and performing it in front of the school. As TY's, our colour was yellow, so we decided to make a dance about Snapchat. Our tutor, Ms. Farrell, helped us with the idea and got involved with the dance. We practiced lots of times throughout the week, to try to get the dance perfect :)

On the day of the Fun Walk, we were kind of nervous, but everything went really well. It was really fun, and what made it better was that we won!! This was my first time winning the Fun Walk, so that was good :) After every year danced, the TY's went to help at the crossings for the walk. Everyone was in a great mood, and thankfully no one got knocked down.. :)

Overall it was a great week and I think it helped us to bond as a class. Until next year, Fun Walk.... ;)

TY Life So Far.

It's hard to believe that next week we will be breaking for mid-term. It feels like yesterday that we were in the hall, being split into our two classes, Merkel and Lagarde. It's only been 7 weeks, but we have already done so much. From Carlingford, to Kilkenny, Work Experience to Mini Company, TY has been anything but boring. I wasn't sure if it was for me at the start, but now I am so glad I chose to do TY. Every day is different, even if were only in the school. There is no pressure about exams, and I have more free time for my hobbies, like playing piano. I already know that this year is going to fly by, so I am going to try to make the most of it. I will also try to post updates as much as I can on this blog :)
