Another very successful Transition Year was brought to a close with the annual TY night for parents and guardians on May 30th. Students made presentations outlining the many fantastic experiences they had throughout the year, including the musical, the Killary and Belfast trips, work experience and a wide range of other activities. There was also time for lots of awards and for the students' portfolios to be viewed by all the guests. The evening was a great celebration of all the growing up and maturing that had taken place throughout the year. Best wishes to all of these fine students in their Senior Cycle.
