... and so it begins

Transition year has definitely begun. This week felt as if we had known each other for years everybody's getting on soo well. We got our theme and colour for the fun walk next Friday. The theme is 'Friendship' for Anti-Bullying Week and our colour is yellow. We decided to be Lego blocks because they get connected together to build an item which is a sign of unity. We are all very excited for the Fun Walk and it is always a great day!
I can't wait for it too:)

Trip to Carlingford

Well we have just returned from Carlingford, it was amazing! We did soo many different activities and had soo many fun times bonding with people we didn't speak to as much before.

We traveled down on Monday morning by coach and everybody was soo excited and couldn't wait to arrive.When we got there we were split into two groups and had our first activities and my groups was 'water activities' we went kayaking followed by pier jumping which was very fun.

Our second activity after lunch was high ropes and the zorbing which was my favourite activity of the day! Then our final activity of the day was walking through a forest blindfolded while following a rope which was scary and Mr.K soaked us with his bottle of water!

We then stayed overnight and I stayed in a room with 5 others:) Our first activity of the second day was challenges this consisted of alot of different fun challenges to figure out and for completing these challenges we received gems our team ended up in last place with 10 gems.Our second and final activity was laser shooting in the forest which was by far my favourite activity of the trip.

We all had a brilliant time and i'd like to thank the teachers from our school that organised it and would say it was probably the highlight of TY so far:) The picture below is of us completing one of our challenges:)

Junior Cert Results Day+Night

It was results day and we didn't have to be in until 12:30 as our morning sports activities had been cancelled the day before. I wasn't nervous at all unlike most of the people in the hall..

 As soon as I received my results I left the hall and waited till I got home to open my results.I was very happy with the outcome and felt like I had achieved what I wanted.


Then it was time to get ready for jc night in TIME!I had been looking forward to it for ages and I had an amazing night with all of the girlos :)
