Outside of the amazing work some of our teachers and students are engaging in by qualifying and competing in various regional and national competitions this week, our TY students also had a number of other opportunities available to them. Microsoft Dream Space For Transition Year students, this is a period of discovering their place in the world. Many are going to need some guidance and a little inspiration on their journey. We decided to bring our TY students on a virtual tour of One Microsoft Place before joining their team to spark curiosity and learn about the future of STEM and their role in it. In the session, students were introduced to the types of jobs and skills that are required in Microsoft Ireland and the jobs of tomorrow. Students were then challenged to reimagine how these key skills work alongside technology and STEAM. The activities during the session were catered for our students in an online environment but it is our hope to travel to the Microsoft building later this year so students can immersive themselves in life at Microsoft Ireland! A career in technology opens up a world of possibilities. It does not necessarily mean a life of coding. In DreamSpace they showed students how technology can set them on a path to doing what they love for a living and how they could make their dream job a reality. Mindfulness Talk for Teenagers Today, Louise Shanagher introduced students to mindfulness and self-compassion practices. The talk helps give students practical tools to help promote their positive mental health and wellbeing and in particular to help them manage stress and anxiety. Louise is a children’s therapist, mindfulness teacher and psychology lecturer. She is the author of three books: The ‘Mindfully Me’ series, which is Ireland’s first series of mindfulness books for children. Stripe TY Virtual Tour Our TYs had an amazing opportunity this week by getting a chance to look into what life is like at Stripe. The tech company who build economic infrastructure for the internet were founded by Irish entrepreneur brothers John and Patrick Collison in Palo Alto, CA, in 2010. Some of the schedule that was involved is set out below: - Financial crimes/risk: Find out how we protect Stripe from bad actors wanting to launder their dirty money - Transforming today’s thought into tomorrow’s reality — learn about how Stripe helps enable start-up’s to build and grow their businesses to a global stage - People — Careers & development paths: How it started vs how it’s going - Finance & strategy: Discover what it takes to run a world leading company - Law & regulation: What does a lawyer do in a tech company?

5th years- Applications to Repeat 5th Year
Created : 23 Mar 2021, 7:20 PM
Archived : 23 May 2021, 12:00 AM
At this time of year, we are planning the subjects and classes for the 2021-22 school year. Current 3rd years and Transition Year students are presently selecting their option subjects this week as part of this process. If there are any 5th year students and their parents who have been considering repeating 5th year as a plan for next September, the students should see Mrs Murphy between Wed and Friday of this week for an Application Form and also for the Subject Option Form to complete again. It is not an entitlement of any student to be allowed to repeat 5th year. The Department of Education & Skills questions the reasons of each and there is a limit as to the number allowed to do so in any school in any year. The student will submit the 2 Forms and then meet with Mrs Murphy and one of the Deputy Principals in advance of being given approval. One important requirement is that the student continue to fully engage in their classes, exams, projects etc to the very end of 5th year. Anyone who sees it as a Pass to an early summer holiday will be required to continue into 6th year in September. Anyone who does not sit their final exams in May will not be repeating. Repeating is difficult, it can be boring, repetitive by its very nature, friends move on without you, etc. There is also no guarantee that online learning will be finished this Easter. Just because a student did not do so well at the on line learning since January is no free pass into repeating - what if there's another few weeks or months of it next year? Anyone in college this year is still doing their college lectures and assignments online and mainly from home, and this is very much part of our future for the moment. Thank you. MM
