Group 4.4 Law


A note from your Law course coordinator:


"On Monday- the first day of the course, I will meet the students at the Kings Bench Suite, Maldron Hotel, Smithfield Market, Smithfield, Dublin 7, D07 RF2Y, at 10 a.m.


The students might note the meeting room, there will also be signs to the room under “St Michael's TY”.


The students will attend the Criminal Courts of Justice (CCJ) and/or the Four Courts for the rest of the week. They will be instructed to meet me at the CCJ on Tuesday- Friday at 10am.

It is recommended students have a good breakfast, as there will be no ‘little break’ prior to lunch (around 1 o’clock).


The Maldron Hotel is located in Smithfield Square, a 5 minute walk through Smithfield Square from the Smithfield Luas stop.


The Hotel is accessible via the Luas (Red Line via Dart). Otherwise Buses to O’Connell Bridge leave students a 20-minute walk from the hotel.


Dress:

• No school uniform required.

• No St. Michael’s College gear e.g. Jackets etc.

• No Runners or Hoodies.

• Smart casual i.e. shoes, trousers & shirts/jumper – there is no need to wear a suit.



Please dress as if attending for work experience i.e. neat and tidy at all times – no need for any parent to purchase new items for this week. If possible, please do not bring school bags (you will not need any materials for the week). Obviously, if students need to bring sports gear etc., they may do so, but I would ask that they please do not bring items that are unnecessary or any items of value (as they will be at risk of being stolen in the CCJ).


The students will be within a professional environment at all times and will be expected to act as such."



Group 4.5 Boxing & Self Defence


Venue: Chapter 2 Fitness,


Unit 61D Heather Road, Sandyford Industrial Estate


9:50am - 2:20pm
