Transition year information

TY Healthy Eating
The TY class of 2016 began a new departure taking a cooking and healthy eating module with Ms O Mahony. Throughout the term they honed their skills where they invited their parents and teachers for a Christmas Dinner in the library. This sumptuous three course meal was prepared and cooked in our new kitchen and served by the students resplendent in their white shirts and festive dickie-bows. A wonderful evening was held by all with parents delighted that their “master chefs” will be helping out with the cooking over the Christmas holidays.
