Work Experience


This Wednesday we're starting work experience. I'm going to Athena Hair Studio on the Hazel Hatch Road. I am so excited because I absolutely love hairdressing and working with hair. I know I wont be allowed do anything like that but I'm looking forward to the experience of being around people who are working with hair. I'll be washing hair, answering the phone/making books, and sweeping the floor of course! hahaha :)

My day starts at 9:30 am and I finish at 5:30, I'm not too sure about lunch breaks but I really hope I get one because I will not survive that long without food! I have to wear black clothing and my hair always has to be done nicely, I don't mind that because styling hair is one of my favorite hobbies :)

Carlingford

Sooooo we're back in school a month now and It feels like forever! I don't particularly mind thought because TY is actually so much fun, despite the projects, I'm not really into them but I'll get use to them I guess! Last Monday and Tuesday we went to Carlingford Adventure Center. We stayed for 2 days and 1 night. I stayed in a room with 12 of my friends which was great fun. Twelve girls mean 12000 bags of sweets/chocolate!

We canoed and rowed over to a well where we got drenched! The water was freezing. I also fell into a hole of course, being so clumsy hahah. We were then allowed to jump on the trampoline in the middle of the sea which was the best part. That night we walked through the mountain blind folded.I didn't really enjoy that part but being with everybody in my year was fun!

The next day we played laser tag which was my favorite activity. We were given camouflage overalls and head pieces which were used to kill you. We all got 30 shots and 30 lives, my favorite part was shooting the girls on the other team and I loved being able to kill the girls too. After the 2 hours we were all so tired but enjoyed it.

We arrived home that evening at around half 7 and I was starving but hunger is a good sauce!

My First Week In Transition Year

I've been in TY two weeks now and I am loving it! I love my class because a lot of my friends are in it but also people I've never spoken to before which I look forward to becoming friends with! We've already been assigned loads of projects which I don't like the idea of but I suppose that's all part of this year. I'm really looking forward to do Home Ec and Music because I haven't studied them since first year and I am extremely looking forward to do Art as I have never done it before! I'm so nervous for the results which are coming out on the 10th but I can't wait to see how I did and celebrate with my friends that night! Carlingford is coming up soon aswell which I'm so excited for because we get to spend time together as a year group for two days!
