How do you summarise TY in a blog post- you cant

For 78 young ladies, panic stations are setting in as the reality of fifth year sets in and  Transition Year 2011-2012 comes to an end. We have but 3 weeks, before we separate for the summer once again. As I sit here I reminisce on all the amazing experiences that I have had the opportunity to experience during the year. I just want to make a list of all the things that we have done this year, so that I can put into perspective just how much we have done this year. 

*Carlingford

*Juno and the Paycock

*Don Giovanni opera

*Laura's ballet

*Mini company trips

*Bowling

*Young Scientist

*Mullingar Briary Gap drama festival

*Trip to Kildare

*Lollipop day

*Retreats

*Braveforce 

* Sci fest

*Swim a mile

* MCDONALDS. 

 

These are only the trips that I can remember off the top of my head, no doubt we've been on more! 

All in all it has been an unbelievable year. When I see it summarised, it doesnt even touch on the experiences that we've had. Aside from all the trips we've bonded as a year, grown individually and all matured greatly, in our own unique way. There have been tears and there has DEFINITELY been laughter, but through thick and thin we've shown that we're a resilient bunch - that's for sure and no matter what we'll always be there for eachother. I just want to say a huge thank you to ms Leahy and all our teachers for the incredible opportunities they've given us, and how dedicated they've been to making our TY year the best it can possibly be.
