Ty week 5 :).

This week in ty has been good. We came in too some very good news on Monday morning, as we excepted our class won the fun run dance competition. We danced to s club 7’s song reach. We all dressed up in yellow and had a great time.    On Monday in music we had a singing class we all had too stand up and sing a chant we learnt it was really good but difficult to sing. We broke off into different groups and had to sing at the same time. It was great crack.    In technology we are designing a formula one car for a competition our teacher entered us into. I cant wait to get working on our car.    In English we are doing a play. Our play is based on the poem “but you didn’t” by Meryl glass. We all got our parts for the play and me and my group are working on getting the costumes for the play.    In p.e We are getting in two rugby coaches every Wednesday to teach us how to play tag rugby. It is so much fun but real hard work.    In history we got assigned groups and are now working on projects for the 3rd years. I am doing a presentation on the Vietnam war. I hope it helps our third years in their studies for the junior cert.

Week 3

Week 3 in TY has been amazing.

Monday morning up nice and early too head off to Carlingford. We arrived in carling for at 9 o clock got changed quickly and headed straight out too our first activity, the high ropes. It was amazing we had too all wear a harness and then climb up a wooden pole too the top where there was a small platform where four of us had two try stand on it.

Thenthere was the jacobs ladder which was like one giant ladder and we had to use each other too try climb up the ladder to the top.

Then we went canoeing which was great fun we went in doubles and had too canoe over too the other side of the sea where we played a few quick games before sailing back too go pier jumping.

that evening after tea we went for an evening hike up the mountains. It was great fun going up in the rain and wind in pitch black.

The next morning we were woken at 8 a.m for some orienteering up the mountain. after that we went straight too archery where we done a few challenges before heading back too our rooms.

Our final activity was the challenge course. This was where we were giving little mini challenges too complete as a team and after that we were giving little gems the winning team were the people with the most gems. My favourite challenge in it was the maze this was were we were sent into a 60 foot container and inside was a 3 level wooden maze which we had too crawl around in the pitch black on our hands and knees and tried too find the exit.
