On Tuesday the winners of the schools finals went to Sci Fest in IT Tallaght. We had to present our project on pack mentality to a number of judges. Unfortunately we didn't win a prize but it was a good experience. The food was nice and we had the option to go to lectures about different sciences. I went to a talk about preventing and treating a sports injury in GAA. I found this very interesting as I have had trouble with an ankle injury due to playing Camogie.
We also had our TY retreat on Wednesday. We thought it was going to be quite religious as it was held in St Patricks college ( the priests college) in Maynooth University. Thankfully however it wasnt, we played games which some people slightly vicious and competitive. Overall it was really interesting as we got to talk about issues affecting us such as gender bias and the role of parents.
In PE we are doing Hip Hop which is taught by a dance teacher. We are preparing a dance for our TY Graduation night which is in two weeks. My half of the year are dancing to Beyonce and Uptown funk and the other group are dancing to Ariana Grande.
