Plans for 2013/2014

Only a short time until we are back to school and I thought I'd post an update of September plans just incase any TY 2013/2014 might be popping by.

TY's return to school on Thursday 29th August. Work experience is on each Wednesday this year again but it will not start until Wednesday 2nd October. In September they will have workshops on each Wednesday to prepare for work experience.

They will have 3 workshops on September 4th - Personal Development, Positivity, and Massage.
September 11th is Junior Cert results day.
Another 3 workshops on September 18th - Stress Management, Etiquette, and Building rapport.
Three more workshops on September 25th - Dressing for work experience, Assertiveness, and a work experience workshop from Mr Corcoran and Ms Hughes.

Mini Company, Young Scientist, F1 in Schools, and lots of other projects will be started but probably the most anticipated trip will be our bonding trip to Carlingford Adventure Centre on 16th and 17th September. We will leave the school at 7am on the Monday and return by 7pm on the Tuesday - exhausted but happy.

I think September will be a busy month!

TY vs Bastille

This was TY 2012/2013's closing song on TY Night. All three classes learnt the song, moves, and harmonies in separate Music classes. They only had one day to sing it together before they performed it at TY Night. I think they did a great job.
