Projects!

It is now nearing the end of the first term of school and I have really enjoyed it. As we all were told at the end of third year, TY involves a lot of projects however I don't think any of us were prepared for this. It seems that we have a project for every subject. Although this involves a lot of work I like it as it keeps me focused and active. 
  Last week some of our scifest project was due. I went up to a girl in my group, Cliodhna's house. We got it all done and we were really happy with the end result. 
 We have just started on a new project in Technology, we have to plan and design a small formula 1 car. I have no experience with technology as I never took it as a subject so I think it will be though work but I'm up for the challenge! This is an example of a pass participant's formula 1 car.

Fun Walk!

    On Friday we had our annual fun walk. For the TY year we were given the colour yellow. We had to wear a yellow t-shirt and our navy p.e. tracksuit bottoms. We were allowed to dress up following our theme of yellow. My class, Cairdeas, dressed up as the yellow pages. 
    As we were the yellow pages we decided to choose the song "Call me maybe" and made a dance to it. Half of the class did this and the other half did the "gangnam" dance and dressed up in suits. 
   It went really well on the day and we all had great fun. However we didn't win in the end :( We were all really disappointed by the result because we put so much effort into it.
