TY So Far : )

So far, I have really enjoyed Transition Year!

I’ve had chances to do a lot of things I’ve never experienced before.

I’ve never had a job in my life, and this year I’ve had two so far, and have just started my third one!

-Scoil Naomh Bríd Primary School

-Setanta Sports Broadcasting House

-ABsolutely FABulous Flowers

I really enjoyed my first two work placements, and I have a feeling I will really like my third one too! When organising my work placements, I made sure to choose three completely different ones, so I could experience more.

We have done many activities in aid of several charities…

-“HollyDays” for ISPCC

-“National Pancake Party” for Tallaght Children’s Hospital

-“Lollipop Day” for the Oesophageal Cancer Fund

We have taken part in competitions, such as “The Briary Gap TY Drama Competition”, where we got a chance to write and perform our own play, and “MiniCompany” where we invented and sold our own product. I have never taken part in any competition similar to “MiniCompany” before, and I really liked it. It made me feel much older for some reason...maybe because we had a lot of responsibilities, and we had to organise the whole thing ourselves!

We have gone on several trips, such as the traditional trip to Carlingford J We also went on a maths trip to Rathbeggan Lakes, a science trip to the RDS (BT Young Scientist) and a Road Safety talk in Punchestown.

Apart from the trips and activities, I think TY has made me much more confident, and it has allowed me to make loads of new friends! I’m so excited for the rest of the year!
