    Was at Paintball today in Bray.

    I've bruises all over :P

    Think that was the last TY activity for me, I'm finished next Tuesday I think and I don't have school on Fridays meaning just 4 days left!

    I had my graduation yesterday too, weird to think we're going into 5th year!

    But it's still a while away yet for me, I'm not back to school until the middle of September :D

    Had my graduation today as well! Got a trophy for Pupil of the Year :rolleyes:

    Looking forward for 5th year! People keep saying I'm gonna be lazy at the start of 5th year, but I feel more motivated than ever to do work and do well! Anyone else on the same boat? :D Can't wait to move onto the Leaving Cert forum but wouldn't say I'll be checking boards.ie as often.

    Hi everyone :) My name is Daniella (probably evident from the username) and since all of you have done TY I was wondering if you would be able to help me find inspiration for work experience :D Where did you all go?

    When is your work experience on? You could do some TY programmes hosted by a few colleges that give insight in stuff like science/engineering jobs and so on.

    I did two weeks at a charity, a week at a App Development Company and a week at a bakery :p try get a taste of everything.

    My work experience was every Friday from Sept to Dec then every Friday from Jan until May.

    I was at a restaurant/family entertainment centre and a wood yard!

    Get as much exposure to the working environment as you can.

    The more the merrier!

    Mine was two weeks in October and two weeks in April/March. I worked in a chemist, spent two days with a solicitor and three with a barrister, I worked in a cafe and did a week in a radio station. Try and pick whatever you think you'd be interested in doing when you leave school :)
