Carmel Grey (1st Year) describes the 1st Year Geography quiz held just before the Mid-term break.
On Friday, 18th February, the last day of school before the Mid-term break, we took part in a quiz in Geography class. The teams were very well prepared and questions were based on the 1st Year course from September until March. The results were so close between the three teams. Congratulations to all participants. The winners of the quiz were Kate Dempsey, Carmel Grey and Nicole Lawlor!
