Gaisce

Gaisce, The President's Award is the most prestigious Award in Ireland for young people aged 15 to 25. This year in TY we have been working towards the bronze award, the first gaisce award. The Bronze Award programme consists of 4 challenge areas:

1. Community Involvement
2. Personal Skill
3. Physical Recreation
4. Adventure Journey

We have to do 13 weeks of the first three, 26 weeks of one of them and then we will be going on an overnight adventure journey in May. For my Community Involvement I've been singing in the school choir, for the Personal Skill I am taking piano lessons and for Physical Recreation I am doing Zumba. I've been enjoying doing Gaisce because it keeps me busy and I'm excited for the adventure journey in May!

Zumbaaaa

Last week for PE we started Zumba which we will be doing for four weeks. A first everyone was a bit shy because some of the dance moves were kinda silly, but after a while everyone got really into it. It was so fun! And actually so tiring. More of a workout than I'd thought! I'm excited for next week :))
