Becoming an artist?

                                       


On the 24th of September my year and I went to Kilkenny. We went to see a movie called "Song of the Sea" which we watched in a reserved movie theater. After that we went to Kilkenny castle to see an exhibition on how they produced the film. We all gathered together for an endless amount of photos and also some other people took our photo too (it was like a photoshoot with many hyper teenage girls)

Again I tried to take a cool photo (as you can see by my coffee cup I like coffee, very very much.)

Carlingford Adventures

                                      

Each year TY's go on a trip to Carlingford in Lowth. This trip is one of the best experiences in TY and is a way to get to know our year group. We traveled to Lowth on Thursday morning (bright and early) and spent the night there.  We played many games on the trip in the woods to do with teamwork, it was very scary letting someone walk you around blindfolded. We also went pier jumping! It was amazing! Then we went canoeing to the water trampoline. Everyone was pushing each other into the freezing water ( it was absolutely FREEZING!) I was pushed into the water many times but sadly I never got my revenge as we had to head back to the center.  That night we indulged in lots of chocolate and crisps after a long day.



 The main street. I tried to take tumblr photos with Marion, go check out her blog!  (marionstyblog.blogspot.ie, yes this is a promo)

The moment of truth.......RESULTS!

                                 



3rd year is the of the Junior Cert. My whole year was spent studying and preparing for the exams at the end of the year that represent all of my hard work over the previous 3 Years. On the 9th of September I received my results, which represented all of my hard work and endless amount of coffee with my friends. I was delighted with my results and was excited to go out and celebrate with my friends. I received my results and opened them with my friends in our school hall. Once i saw my results I jumped on top of Marion (She will probably be mentioned a lot in my blog, # notsoz) 
That night I went over to my friend Emma's house to get ready for our night out.

What is transition year?




Transition year, in my opinion, is a year out of stress and worry that comes from school exams. Transition year is a year to explore after school activities and to make new memories. Transition year is optional in my school and this year we have a year group of 58 students. Our year is split into 2 classes, Lagarde and Merkel. We are named after two powerful women in our world today. We have been on many trips this year to Carlingford, Kilkenny and Dublin.
