Sarah Corrigan (6th Year) and Peadar Charles (5th Year) explain what is involved in the Leaving Certificate Geography river study.
On Tuesday, 4th October, the 5th and 6th Year Geography classes, accompanied by Ms. Conlon and Ms. McGuckin, made their way to the Knockree Eco Centre to carry out our Leaving Certificate river study. This study is worth 20% of our Leaving Certificate, so it is important for us to participate and give full attention throughout the day.
It was a tiring, yet enjoyable day, spending our time standing and walking through a river. We were lucky to have good weather! Overall it was an experience for us all and the 5th Years got the benefit of getting the idea of what they will have to do next year for their Leaving Certificate.

On the 4th October, the fifth and sixth year Geography classes went on a field trip to the Glencree River as part of the geographical investigation. We went with the aim of proving the point of the river we were going to study was a river meander. Overall, everyone enjoyed the trip and the change from the classroom. Special thanks Jackie Kelleher who drove the fifth years there and back.
