Ireland
Welcome to my blog! In my school (and many other schools in Ireland), fourth year - the year after our Junior Cert - is optional. It's a non-exam-based year but there's still plenty to do like projects in various subjects, work experience, competitions and trying out loads of new things! This year, a new idea was brought into TY; for each student to write a blog on their year...so this is my blog about my experience of TY. I started writing it in Spetember/October and it'll go up to the end of May when we get our Summer holidays and TY is over... If you're thinking of doing TY or if you just want to know more make sure you send me questions and I'll try my best to answer! Enjoy reading it!!

Last Day of Work Experience!!! :(

I cannot believe it's over!! This week was absolutely amaaaaazing!!
Today I was in Tirmohan N.S. It's a lovely little school in Meath's countryside and only has 6 class teachers!! I began in a class thaat has 25 fifth class and 5 fourth class. I gave a spelling test and corrected it and I wrote a weather report for the class' pen-pals in Poland. After break I went to 6th class and helped with a science experiment. I had to light candles which was....interesting!! Then I went into junior infants to help stick sheets intot heir copies..they were very cute!! After lunch I detangled loads of skipping ropes and then listened to thee fourth and fifth class practising their play..it was a great day and a good experience!!
It's so wierd to think that next week we'll be back in school in classes after a week of experiencing the working world!! This week has made me think a lot about possible careers and I also had a LOT of fun!!! I met so many amazing people and it was such an eye-opener. I can't wait for March for my second week of work experience when I'll be heading to the courts' service.
I'll write again next week when I'm back in school!! :)
