Wesley Choir Competition

The Choir performed the French song 'Caresse Sur L'Ocean', from the film Les Choristes, on Friday the 1st March in Wesley College Dublin. There are currently 55 members in the school choir who practice every Monday and Tuesday.We all sang very well during their performance.  

Hockey Final!

This Wednesday, the senior hockey team (which I am a member of) were in the final of the north side league in Dublin. We were against King's Hospital and playing at home because we won the toss to have it on our home turf. The senior team consists of Tys, 5th years and 6th years.

K.H scored in the first half early on. we had played well but they were on top. At the end of the first haft, everyone was slightly flat and disappointed that we had let in a goal. But we were far from out of it. Everyone really wanted and went back on to the field wanting to score a goal and win this!

About 2/3 minutes into the second half Eimer  scored a goal, to bring us level! Throughout the second we played much better. After 50 minutes the two teams couldn't be separated so we went to extra time, 7 minutes aside. 

Still after the 14 minutes of extra time we were still level. We then went to penalty flicks. 5 girls were chosen to take the penalties!  I was so scared!

 But in the end we Won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a picture of my poster for the Sci fest in schools competition. Our project was called Raise the result raise the Temperature. It was to do with how environmental temperature effects performance!

Pictures from lollipop day

Lollipop Day!!!

About 2 weeks ago all T.Y. went  into town to collect money for Oesophageal Cancer. When we got there we  walked to the Powerscourt centre to collect our t-shirts, caps, collection buckets, lollipops and balloons. We then split up into our groups of 4 and went to our collection points doted around the city centre  myself, Katie, Orla, Orlaith were near Temple Bar at the Hay Penny bridge. Orlaith and I stood in an arch into temple bar with one bucket. We gave out stickers for any donations  and €2 for a lollipop or badge.

Besides the freezing cold, we really enjoyed ourselves!  People were really generous and interested in what we were collecting for (Oesophageal Cancer).

Shoot for the stars with Sportscope....

Our Mini Company Project -

Sportscope: was the name of our mini company. It is a sports skills App. for phones and computers. It would be used to help you improve and boost your knowledge in your chosen Sport. We were in a group of 8 and worked on making the App for many months. A lot of hard work was done to get it ready for the competition day. I was the managing director of our group. Unfortunately we didnt get through to the county final so that is how far we went, Although the  process was hard I enjoyed making the App.
