I can't believe I'm saying this but tomorrow is the day that all the TY students have been working up to for the last three years! JUNIOR CERT RESULTS!!! I'm starting to get a little nervous now thinking about how I've done but hopefully all the hard work has paid off. :)

Week 2- Positivity :)

This week we were very lucky to have three workshops in one day! Our Wednesday was filled with positive thoughts and was aimed at improving our confidence and helping us create positive energy. The first workshop was with a fellow Celbridge man, Austin Dunne. The workshop was all about making us feel more confident in our own skin. The second workshop was great! We all learned how to do shoulder massages on each other which was a really relaxing break from school life. Lastly, we had a positive party :) We were basically shown how to turn negative thoughts into positivity. It was good fun and we all got lollipops at the end which was a great way to end the day!!

A New Year, A New Beginning!!

"The secret to a rich life is to have more beginnings than endings"- Dave Weinbaum

Hi everyone :)  
This is my first ever blog post so I'm not really too sure what to write! I'm looking forward to improving my blog throughout the year and I'm sure with all the fantastic new experiences and challenges that are heading my way I'll have a lot more to write about. So, I've only been in TY for four days now and I'm already starting to get used to the new routine. The first day was quite nerve wrecking as we were put in our new classes and I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I'm in class Tabei!! There are a lot of new faces to get used to in class but I'm sure I'll get to know everyone throughout the year. On Friday I had my very first technology class which actually went a lot better than I thought it would...well I didn't chop off any of my fingers yet and that's always a good sign!!!

Will write again soon,

Caoimhe :)
