1st Year
On Wednesday next, March 6th, the 1st Year Team is inviting all parents of 1st Year students to attend a study skills information session presented by Amazing Brains. The presentation will take place in St. Joseph's at 7pm and we look forward to seeing you all on the night. The first year of secondary school is crucial to enabling students to develop both the mindset and study habits to succeed at school. If those habits can be embedded at this early stage then the journey through second level education can be smoother and much more rewarding. Blast Off is an upbeat, interactive and fun programme that has been designed to captivate, motivate and educate young people about their brain and learning. It aims to create a success-oriented mindset amongst students, boost academic performance and foster a positive, lifelong attitude to learning. This programme is guaranteed to reinforce and compliment the work being done by teachers in the school.
