Workshops :)

Hey there,

It is week 2 of TY and I'm having a great time. On Wednesday the 4th of September I had my first day of workshops. We did 3 different workshops throughout the day. 

Our first workshop was a 'Positive Party'. This was great fun. We had sweets and listened to music and danced. We learned how to 'trigger' a memory and have general fun. I left that workshop in a very good mood.


Our second workshop was 'Life without Limits'. This taught me how to face my fears. I also learned how to build on my confidence.
Our third workshop was a massage workshop. I really enjoyed this. I learned how to give a massage and relieve stress. When I left the workshop I was very relaxed.
Talk to you soon!

Survived Week One!!

Hey there,
This is my first blog post so I'll tell you about my week and what I have to look forward to in the future. On Thursday 29th of August I arrived into school for my first day in
TY. I was quite nervous because I was going into a whole new class. Luckily I've ended up in a class with 3 of my best friends. Our class name is Tereshkova, she was the first woman to go to space. 
I have gotten a few projects to do already. I have to do a geography project to do on the county Limerick. I also have to do a religion project to do on the Development Millennium Goals.  In 2 weeks we are going on a trip to Carlingford Adventure Centre, I'm really looking forward to that trip. I am doing art this year and I have never done it before and I'm finding it difficult. My work experience is starting in 3 weeks and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm going to my primary school for my first work experience. 
We've also started a project in Home Economics. It's called 'Junk Kouture'. I'm really excited about this because I love Home-Ec and this project is going to be really fun.
TY is definitely keeping me busy and I'm having a really good time.
Talk soon!!
