Water Treatment Plant

Yesterday my mini company, Green Hero went to the water treatment plant in Leixlip. We decided to go here, because for the 2nd issue of our magazine the theme is water. We got a tour of the whole plant (which is very big!) We got to see all the stages of how the water is treated so that it is safe to drink. We took a lot of pictures which will go into the next issue. I think it is important that children are educated about the process of how their water is cleaned before it gets to the taps. Overall twas a very interesting day (:

Cross Country

On thursday we had a cross country race in the phoenix park. From ty it was myself, rebekah, lauren, davina and sarah came to watch ;) It was un-naturally cold and I was dreading running, but I finshed it without passing out, so that was an achievement! :-) The race went ok, but our team was the only team from our school that didnt get a medal and qualify for the leinsters :( but we still get to go and support the other girls at the race in 2 weeks :D

Mile Challenge and Rugby

So on wednesday the ty's and 5th years had the mile challenge. I decided that I would do it, just for a laugh! There was a lot of people there, which was quite surprising. I was really tired because it was so early, but it went ok,so now i'm waiting to get my free wristband! :L
Later on we had double pe, and we were doing tag rugby again :DD I didn't realise that we would be doing it again, but we have it for the next few weeks :) (yay!!) we have another blitz on in a few weeks again, but it will be bigger than the last time. It should be even better than the last one. I love tag rugby so much, its like one of the the best things we've done in ty :D  <3

Drama Competition in Mullingar

yesterday all the tys headed off to mullingar for a drama competition :) we had four dramas entered. My groups play was based on the poem " but you didnt". I was a waitress, and a very cool one at that :P it was a really fun day..the three other plays were fantastic as well, TEARJERKERS!! we also got to watch 2 plays from a school in donegal, they were so good. Overall it was a really good day, so hopefully we will get through to the next round!

Rugby Tournament

Last thursday, the two rugby teams headed off to tallaght for a bit of a rugby blitz :L I was on team one, and i must say we were very good ;) we won every game. Team 2 were excellent as well and we made sure to cheer them on, when we weren't playing :) It was such a good day, so much fun! I really really like rugby and we've got another rugby blitz at easter, so hopefully that will be good :D to make the day even better, we got free t shirts and bags...so that was awesome haha (:
