In their TY (Transition Year) reflection, the student enjoyed going on more trips than in previous years of school, including trips to Carlingford and a Japanese restaurant, and they were offered a trip to Spain that they declined. They appreciated the change from regular homework to more project-based work, and that TY gave opportunities to make new friends through team projects and trips. Overall, the student felt TY was a great year that helped boost confidence and allowed more time to decide on options for the leaving certificate and future plans.

went on more trips then we did in 1st ,2nd and 3rd year combined including trips to Carlingford and a Japanese restaurant and we were even giving the chance to go to Spain on the Camino de Santiago for a week which I decided not to go on, I can only imagine what amazing trips could be available next year. Another nice part of the TY was the change from regular work i.e homework and written work to a more project orientated curriculum, it also gives you the chance to make new friends with a lot of the projects and trips in teams or pairs. Overall I think its a great year and that it gives you confidence and also gives you more time to decide on what you want to do for the leaving cert and in the future and I cannot recommend it enough.
