Potato Gun whaaaaaat?

Last Monday our science teachers took us to Tallaght I.T. We left the school at 10.40. We then headed on our way..

The talk was amazing and wasnt boring at all!! We had such a good day! We learnt all about air and the atmosphere. It was such an amazing experience. I'm so glad I got to go.

For lunch we got to go to Liffey Valley. It was really nice of the teachers to bring us. We were there for around 2 hours. I go Mac Donalds and STARBUCKS!<3
Happy meal yah!
Choc Frap = Life

We then went for a little shopping and had a look at loads of clothes and things wooo!

All in all the day was great..



Open Day means free cupcakes! ;)

We had our annual open day to give our incoming 1st years a taste of what St Wolstans life is like.
I was asked to come in and represent the basketball after school activity it was so much fun!

First Year-Witches
Second Year-Zombies
Third Year-Vampires&Werewolves 
Ty-Villians

I got up at 6:30 to prepare my outfit. I was going to be 'The Joker' from 'Batman'. I was so excited, my mum had bought me a Joker kit so i had the hair, the scars. I wore my grand daddy's suit and made a waist coat out of my old curtains, I had joker converse, my brothers tie and his shirt.
Me as 'The Joker'

I also got interviewed by Ty News. I got entered in the parade but unfortunately I didn't win. I had so much fun and the day was a great success.

#MinionsForLife



On Friday the 11th of October. We had our annual fun walk. This is my favorite piece of friendship week its so much fun getting ready for it and planning the dance and the theme of our class.

1st Year- Pink
2nd Year- Purple
3rd Year- Green
Ty- Yellow
5th Year- Blue
6th Year-Black&White
My class as minions!!


We have had such a busy few weeks we only had a few days to prepare our dance. We picked the theme 'Despicable Me Minions" and the song 'Wanna Be' by Spice Girls. Our teacher dressed up as Gru from Despicable Me. It was so fun getting the dance together and learning it. I really got to connect  with the girls in my class. I knew the dance pretty well so i went to the front because I thought well if I'm going to make a fool of myself by painting myself yellow I might as well go the whole way.

Its natural i swear..;)
On the day everyone made an effort to be a minion and to get involved. We painted each other yellow and made google, and I must say I we did look goooood =) Our dance went great and Ms McM looked terrifyingly good;) It was such a good day and I got to help out with the road safety. I felt like even though I looked crazy and was sosososo hyper I had an even better day just cause I got so involved. I want to thank all the teachers, students and prefects for an amazing day! =)
Amazing dayy!

I will ALWAYS wear my seat belt in the car!

We recently had a talk on  Road Safety. And holy cow it was the scariest talk of my life! The videos were so vivid and terrified me. In a way the day was really good because I didnt really think about the effect a small things can have in a car. A thing as small as sending a small short text in the car can kill someone or cause a crash! He talked to us about all the road safety and how one small thing can save a life. We also had a theory test and i got 34 and the passing number was 35. All in all I learnt a lot.

Building a raft?!?!

No its building rappor.On wednesday 25th we had our final set of workshops. We were learning how  to build rapport, which is basically building relationships. We had to wear crazy wigs and masks and Emma was wearing a banana costume!! I also volunteered to help demonstrate bad and good ways of introducing yourself or having a conversation. It was another great experience with Denise.

Looking well Emma

Me and my bestieee=)



Our next workshop was all about makeup, skin care and learning how to tie our ties!! It was actually such an interesting one because i will take so many tips into advice when doing my make up or styling my hair.

yeah those are hair nets..
Last but not least was our workshop on work experience. It was held by our guidance councilors. We went over loads of tips for the work experience. It was actually so helpful and made me even more excited for working in the vet.
