This week kicked off with three groups of students participating in Sign Language classes. All students thoroughly enjoyed their virtual lessons. It was fantastic to see them signing to one another and teaching their OLS teacher’s how to sign their names. Wednesday afternoon saw a number of our TY students participate in an Introductory Barista Course led by Dublin Barista School. This workshop equipped students with a new skill to help secure part-time or summer employment. The course delved into the world of coffee farming, coffee roasting, coffee brewing and the coffee industry in Ireland. Each student then had the opportunity to make their own coffee, topping it off with a love heart design. Should students wish, there are now places available for the advanced qualified barista training. TY Interviews took place this week. We received fantastic feedback from teachers on how well students presented themselves. They thoroughly enjoyed listening to students discuss their TY Experience to date. Well done and thank you to all involved! DOJOMOR 2021 took place last weekend and we had some TY students participate in a number of different coding workshops. We also had students take part in Down Syndrome Dublin’s Information evening, preparing them for their film workshop at the end of November, where they will be supporting adults with Downs Syndrome. Throughout the week TY’s also had the opportunity to sign up to Microsoft Ireland’s Project Management Workshop and AIB’s Career skills Competition. All TY students completed their My Eirquest and My Aptitude Tests this week. These assessments are used to assist students in recognising their strengths and so aid them in making their subject choice for the Leaving Certificate. Next week will see another rotation for TY’s where they will get to try their hand at new and exciting modules. Starting Monday, each TY class will be allocated a POD of trees around the school. They will plant bulbs around these trees and watch them bloom in Spring just as they are doing throughout their TY Experience. These trees will be a symbol of their growth as a class and we hope to decorate these trees during the Christmas festive period. We also look forward to the Great TY Bake Off for all taking place next Wednesday, judged by our very own Ms. Ronan. Thursday will see our TY’s participate in ‘Run in the Dark’ for the Mark Pollock Trust. Round 3 of our TY Table Tennis tournament will start Monday. Lastly, we look forward to engaging in the 66th Cork International Film Festival. We are delighted to have our TY’s participate in ‘Intinn’, the Festival’s successful Film and Mental Health programme for Transition Year students. Make sure and stay tuned for some exciting news coming your way next week!

World Kindness day 2021. Saturday 13th November

World Kindness Day is internationally celebrated around the world. It is based on the idea that if each person shared one random act of kindness throughout the day it would have a huge impact on everyone’s lives. But why stop at random acts of kindness? The latest initiative is all about starting intentional acts of kindness. Each day we all do things in our routine subconsciously that we do with intention. Waking up, getting ready and going to school. As a school community we must all add intentional acts of kindness into our daily routine. These can be as simple as a smile or a quick conversation. Often, people focus on doing acts of kindness for others. And while this is great and has a huge impact on those around us we also need to remember to act kind towards ourselves. Whether this is giving ourselves a five minute lie in in the morning or giving ourselves a pamper session at the weekend. It is so important to take time out of our own days to be kind to ourselves especially when school gets busy. This World Kindness Day everyone should try to share an intentional act of kindness with others and yourself. Remember kindness starts with one smile, one compliment, one cup of tea, one conversation. Mar a deir an seanfhocal, níor bhris focal maith fiacail riamh!
