English Trip To Abbey Theatre

Tomorrow on Wednesday the 19th of October, all T.Ys are going into town. In the morning we are going to the Yeats Exhibition, the National Library......and to see The Bog Bodies [ugh]. For the past two weeks we have been working on an english project. My group did it on W.B Yeats, the poets, early life. I found out that he wasn't very good in school and found science maths and languages to be really hard.
In the afternoon we are free to get lunch around Graftons St for awhile and then we are going to the Abbey Theatre to see the play by Sean O' Casey called 'Juno and the Paycock'.

Mini-company workshop

On Wednesday all TYs went to the riverbank theatre in Newbridge for our secong workshop with st marys girl school. Orla is really helpful and even said that the idea that my group has is a great idea. We are still having trouble getting our idea to work though, but we are excited that when we actually get our product ready lots of people has said that they would be interested in buying it. Aswell everyone loves these days that we get to go outside the school and an extra bonus was that after the workshop was finished we got to get chips for our lunch.

Go Bananas, GO GO GO BANANAS

Today everyone is trying to get everything sorted for the fun walk tomorrow. TY colour is yellow and our theme is bananas in pyjames and we have our tutor, Ms McEnery dressed up as a monkey. We are all happy about our dance but we are still trying to get our timing right. The fun walk is one of the best days in our school year, we get to miss classes, see everyone dress up and we all get to have a laugh with the teachers. Because this year we are in TY we have to leave the school before all of the other years, all of us have different posts all along the walk and its our jobis to direct people and to get everyone across the road. The only problem is, if it rains people's signs, make-up and costumes get ruined and we are in Ireland so more than likely there will be rain. As there is a few classes in every year we have a competition for the best idea/dance....... so go bananas, go go GO BANANAS!!!!!!!!!!
