Mullingar Drama trip

Last Tuesday everyone in t.y. went to Mullingar to see Banba and Eiriu compete in a drama contest. We left the school at nine o'clock in the morning and my class, fodla were on the smaller bus and the other two classes were on the bigger bus. I sat beside Emily on the way down.
The competition was on in a small theatre in the Mullingar centre for arts. There were two other schools at the competition and we watched their plays. There was four t.y. plays on in total from Saint Wolstans. Two of them were adaptions of poems (Titch Miller and Mid term break) but the other two were made up from scratch. The plays were very good and they dealt with strong issues such as suicide, bulling and the death of young children. There was one man and one woman there apart from our school to watch the plays and to judge weather they get into the competition or not.
After we had seen the plays we went to Mullingar town for lunch. When we were in McDonald's, Lisa popped a balloon by accident and everyone was staring at her, it was funny.
After we left McDonald's (with our complementary balloons, of course) we walked back up to the centre and the we started on the long journey home to Kildare. Emily fell asleep on the way back and we got home approximately forty minutes ahead of schedule. It was a very fun day and I found the plays enjoyable with strong performances from our school in particular.

Hello :)

I haven't blogged in a while but happy new year to everyone. Last week we started Indian head massage, zumba dancing and band for our Thursday activities. I'm writing this blog in religion. For the next few weeks we are researching Saint Brigid so we can possibly link up with a school in Australia or wherever and teach them about Saint Brigid. My group are making St. Brigid's day crosses.
Thats all for now and thanks for reading! Please comment!

Colour me beautiful!

Yesterday we had a talk on what colours and shapes suit us. I found out that as I have dark hair and eyes I should wear strong dark colours and avoid pastels as they wash me out. We went to see an opera in Rathmines on Tuesday. The opera was Don Giovanni and it was very long. It was also in Italian. Some people fell asleep. Work experience was fun. I went to a bookshop but loads of other people went to primary schools.

I'm back!

Hi, I'm back after being out sick for eight days! In my absence the rest of t.y. went to Juno and the paycock, they all said it was good. I'm part of the wardrobe team for the musical and we had a meeting today at lunchtime. Next week we are going on work experience and I'm going to a bookshop.

Clustr map!

Hello readers! I can now see where you are all from now because of clustr map! Anyone who reads, please comment. Yesterday was world blog day and the theme was food, we were learning all about the millnium goals in religion. We found out some shocking figures including that one point two billion people do not have enough to eat. That is seventeen per cent of the world's population! Today at lunch time we had a mini-company meeting. I hope that we can get our product for dyslexia manufactured.
Thats all for now!
