Newgrange 2014
On our first day back in the New Year, 4F accompanied by Mr. Dillion and Mr. Maguire travelled to Meath to visit the ancient and famous site of Newgrange. 
The class were given the opportunity to explore the inside of the historical passage tomb of the Boyne Valley and learn more about it in the museum on the site.
It was an extremely windy and wet day but the tomb lived it up to the story and not a drop of water entered Newgrange. We walked around the site and the sun came out long enough for us to enjoy the beautiful view of the Boyne River.
As we finished early we were lucky to visit Liffey Valley shopping centre as a treat and had some lunch there. It was an enjoyable and interesting day and I think we all learned a lot.(Christina Anderson)
TY Gelling Trip 2013
The Gelling Trip was a very highly anticipated event for all the girls of Transition Year, and what a great start to the year it was! Our adventure began when all 120 students of Transition Year gathered together at 6am on 4th September 2013 outside our school to set off for a 3-day trip that would be well remembered by all involved, including the 7 brave teachers who brought us. Sleepy-headed teenagers filled up three buses which departed the school at 6.10am, all bound for Dublin port.

Thursday September 26th 2013, the TY's gathered outside the school, decked out in wellies and raincoats. A mucky day was ahead!
We got on the bus at 8.45 and arrived in Ratheniska, Co, Laois at 10.00. Today was the final day of the ploughing, with a record-breaking attendance of 243.000 people!
Harvest Festival- 24/10
The Harvest Festival was a highly anticipated event for all the T.Y students and their religion teachers and after weeks of preparation the day finally came around on the 24th of October. The Assembly hall was unrecognisable with scarecrows crafted by the girls everywhere to be seen and a beautiful centre piece with leaves, plants and silk, lit by candles.
