Get Up & Go :D

We were entered into a mini company competition called the get up & go competition. We competed with other mini company groups. The competition was held in the red cow hotel. We were interviewed by judges about our product, the marketing, manufacturing, etc behind our business. As we do not yet have a product we were convinced we would be walking away without any prize, however we won a trophy for second place for innovation ( originality). Maybe there is some hope after all. Whether we are going to go head and make the book is uncertain for the moment , If we are ill let you know! Karen x

Liffey Champion :D

The photographer came into our school during the week and took photographs of different students who had taken part in events or reached some sort of achievement. Transition years were included in it for : mini company, The Margaret Aylward drama show, The briery Gap drama competition, Tag rugby, The formula 1 Competition, and the Young Scientist. It was nice to remember all the enjoyable events once more , half them forgotten about because of the busy schedule we are used to :) , hopefully there will be achievements to come! Find out more by seeing the next issue of the Liffey Champion newspaper Karen x

Music Night :D

Music night turned out to be a success. The whole Ty year group sang a song together on the night. We sang mama said by Dionne Bromfield. It was a really lively song and seemed to keep everyone including ourselves interested :) , It was an enjoyable night and hopefully fund raised a good bit for the music department in our school!

Hockey Final :)

We had our Hockey Final last week against Glasnevin. We had previously played the same team a week earlier and unfortunately the score was the same for both matches. We lost 1 -0 but we were still given a medal each for reaching that far. We played extremely well and were still proud of our efforts and our amazing coach Ms Van. Hopefully next year we will go all the way! Karen x
