We were busy last week : Leinster Coaching courses, Bike Maintenance & Road Awareness training, Work Placements, Boxing & Self Defence (with very inspirational guest speakers) & the creation of a new Basketball Area for the School.
Here's a short film as to how Claire Prouvost incorporated the many TY designs into the overall layout for the ground mural.
A very special thanks to the Parent's Association for the donation of the Basketball Unit. It's already proven very popular.

5th May
TYTalks21 will take place instead of class activities for those not taking part in driving lessons.
TYTalks21 is an exciting new virtual event that has been created for all Transition Year students in Ireland. The event is designed to inspire and motivate students for the future of work.
Post-Covid, TY students will need to move forward with their education and career choices. The team at Ibec has partnered with the National Association of Principals and Deputy Principles (NAPD) to create a half-day immersive event for all of Ireland’s 45,000 TY students. The event will give insight into the world of work, the skills of the future, different career pathways and so much more.
Listen to futurists, business minds, educators, young leaders, and entrepreneurs. There will be a virtual Expo area showcasing learning and skills partners, an industries discovery zone and enjoy a fun scavenger hunt for cool prizes.
