Week before exams!

Hello all :)
this week is the week before the exams... Eek! I have to get stuck in studying and send in projects and reports, as does everyone! But, the other years are in school until Thursday next week, while we are off at 12.30 on Tuesday, back in at 9.30 on wednesday for bowling ( yay! ) and then home at 1, and then we are off school on Thursday as we have no exams to come in for! We have five exams, Irish, English, maths, religion, and either French or Spanish. Spanish for my class; amina, and french for the other class, emmet. And.... It's only 12 days until Christmas! Yay! Can't wait :)

Home ec fashion show today!

Hello
well, today is the day that all the ty home ec teams have to model their outfits for the judges. Our group is twelvth so that isn't so bad, but I'm the model and so I'm very nervous! Our dress is a purple dress with broken CDs, tinsel and beads on it. We had to dye our outfit purple, which was fun :) other groups are doing other things, such as paper mâché .. And they all look great! Good luck to everyone today :)

Mini Company

Hello J

Well, this week, our magazines for Green Hero were published. On Tuesday, I was so excited; I couldn’t wait until we got the magazines! We had a rough draft which was just our magazine printed out normally, but this was more special J When the school bell rang to say that school was finished, I was ecstatic! We were going over to L.Y.’s house after school as that was where the printer was bringing them. He told us that they would be there at half four. True to his word, the magazines were delivered at 4.30pm sharp! We helped unload the heavy boxes of magazines from the back of his car and into the front room of L.Y.’s house. When he left, we opened the boxes, and there they were… all wrapped in groups of 50 and 100, our magazines! We were all jumping for joy at the sight of the magazines. While there, we sorted them into different amounts for the different schools, and also for our advertisers, the local library etc. When we left L.Y.’s, we were really happy with our work J

On Wednesday, L.Y., S.B., R.P., and P.P. went to the different schools in our area to distribute the magazines; Myself and J.McH. couldn’t go as we had a soccer match that day (which we lost 2-1, but we played our best J). The others distributed the magazines, and now already, the people we gave the magazines to are entering our competitions…. EXCITING J And now… onto issue two we go J
