Ms. Finnegan brought the TY students to Delphi on Monday, 7th September for the start of their four-day adventure sports week. Congratulations to all the TYs on their Junior Certificate results which they received while they were in Delphi. TY student, Sam O'Brien, recounts the week.
Delphi was an amazing trip. It pushed everyone to get out of their comfort zone and try new things, but it brought the whole class together and everyone really bonded. For lots more photos from the 2015 Delphi trip, go to the 2015-2016 web gallery. Thanks to Ms. Finnegan for organising everything and thanks too to Ms. Bennett and Mr. Smith for their help.

It mimics nature and so is more enticing to pollinators and native insects that need the food in Spring.
