O
n Monday, 28th March, Transition Year students started Law Week. The week began by watching the movie "12 Angry Men" which is about a jury panel where one man ends up changing all their minds. On Tuesday, we had a barrister come in and explain the law. We also had a mock trial. On Wednesday we had a day trip to the New Criminal Courts in Dublin city centre, where we got to sit in on some trials. On Thursday, our final day of Law Week, we had an exam about everything that we had learned over the week.
