TY students went to Amsterdam on the 27th of April until 29th of April. On the first day some of us hired bikes and took a tour across the city while some students opted for a walking tour. We returned to the hotel that evening, ordered food and had an enjoyable night.
On the second day we went to the Van Gough Museum, we also had a picnic before going to the NEMO science museum. We then returned to the hotel and prepared to go to dinner at an Italian restaurant. Another fantastic day with great memories.
On the third day we had free time to explore the city and experience local foods. We visited the Anne Frank House, and we walked along the canal and did some sightseeing from a boat. We were all very sad to leave such a great city later that evening.
Thank you to Mr. O’ Callaghan, Ms. Caspi, Ms. Maxwell and Ms. Donohoe for giving of their time to make this trip happen. They looked after us well and protected us which we are very grateful for.

The TY Horticulture class were out in the Autumn sunshine planting Spring bulbs using the chaos planting method. This is when a multitude of different spring bulbs (Hyacinths, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocuses, Narcissi) are mixed together and randomly planted so that we have a mixture of flowers and patterns emerging in the spring. It mimics nature and so is more enticing to pollinators and native insects that need the food in Spring.
