Fresh from their Achill adventures, on Monday the TY undertook an all-day series of team challenges. In glorious sunshine, under the beady eye of TY Co-ordinator Mr McCarthy, the two teams selected their leaders and then had to display physical and mental dexterity as a unit in order to overcome the obstacles set before them. The day culminated in a display of marching that was a sight to behold. Under orders from their individual team leaders each unit performed with military precision. I don't know about the enemy, but they certainly frightened me!
On Monday evening we had the TY Final Presentation Evening. Several pupils spoke to the audience about their Transition Year and the TY Choir closed the evening with a song.
