Junior Cert Results :)

  This day last week I received my Junior Cert Results :) We did not have to come into school that day until 12:30 and we could leave after we got them ! I remember I arrived at the school at exactly 12:25, and I was so nervous!  The hall suddenly started to fill up , and the teachers then arrived to hand out our results :) we got into our old base classes and then they were finally given to us! I slowly opened that envelop but i was not able to look, so i waited till i got into the car! I was happy enough with them, but I still went out and celebrated with my friends and family!
  It honestly feels like we never got them as its all over and done with and we have moved on with our school work :) I'm glad its done  and we our stress free now and we can enjoy the rest of Ty :)

Carlingford :)

Early Monday morning all TY's were up to go on our bonding trip to Carlingford Adventure Centre in Co.Louth .Sleepy faces arrived at the local garage in Celbridge to get the bus to Carlingford for the night :) I was very excited for the trip :) when we arrived at the adventure centre we met our group leaders and were assigned our rooms :) i was in a room with seven of my friends and we all got along really well :) 
 Our Activities then began, my group first went and did the water sports, we had soo much fun which included kayaking, pier jumping and an extra day to our lives!!! :) later on we went and did the high ropes and zorbing :) we finished off the evening by heading up the mountain to a forest to play 'Night Line'. :)
  Bright and Early the Next Morning we started off the day with team building challenges, which were really fun and a great time to get to know others better! followed by that was the Laser Tag which i really really enjoyed apart from the big steep hill to get up there! 
  Despite the weather i had a great time , but would have loved another day up there! i got to know others better and i would like to thank our year head for organizing the trip and the teachers that accompanied it too :)

Beginning Of TY

Hey :) I'm only into the second week of Transition Year and It has been very good so far! The week we were back in school and we sorted out into our new classes. Everybody who I have been talking to said that Ty is a great year and you get great experiences :) I was nervous at the start, as i did not know what classes we were going to be in. I was delighted when I got in a class with my friends :)
    Last Wednesday, we did not have classes, as we will be on work experience every Wednesday in a couple of weeks. Instead we had 3 workshops :) it was a great time to spend time together as a class, and taught us new social skills!!!

I'm enjoying Ty so far, but hopefully it will get even better! that's all for now ;)
