This week has been very busy project wise. From geography projects to Junk Kouture.
On Friday the 30th we had a Mini Company talk in Newbridge. It was in the Odeon Cinema in Whitewater Shopping Centre. We firstly all sat down and relaxed , Orla then asked different Mini Company groups including mine about their products and their marketing techniques.
After that Orla talked to us for a while about our Report for our company. We then got to watch 2 little movies about body language , tone and other issues.
After everything we all got to go to the Food Court for lunch and met back up for our bus back up.
The day was very enjoyable and all of Transition Year are looking forward to selling our product!:)

Junk Kouture
This week for Junk Kouture has been very busy as we only have 2 more weeks to complete our project!
We finished our top completely finally and got all the front of our skirt finished! Our skirt looks very good as there is so much colour and different designs. We will finish the rest of the skirt at the weekend.
Next week we will be in a rush to finish as we still have a lot to do. We have to finish our jewellery, headpiece and shoes.
We are looking forward to when it is finished as we can see our outfit altogether. We are also looking forward to the Fashion Show in our school as we will see what our whole year has been up to.
Bye for now

Projects
This week has been very busy as we have had so much projects to do!
Technology: We have been working on a project in groups. The project is on Formulae 1 racing. Each member in the group has a role and we have to write 5 pages about it. We also have to design a few cars and they will send you back your car.
Junk Kouture: Everyone atm is in a rush with their projects as we all have to have it finished it in 3 weeks. My groups project is coming along well and we are very happy it. Hopefully we will get it finished as soon as possible.
Geography: This week we all have to have our Trip Around The World project and we were also divided into pairs to complete a project about one world. We must give the reasons why you would go to the country and make it appealing.
History: Our history project is due this Monday. I did my project on how the American government has changed over-time. I spent this week working on it each night and I am nearly finished it for Monday.
English: In one of our English classes we have been working on a mood board and we got to pass them around the class to see each persons board. Each board really showed how different and unique everyone is. Also in our other English class we have started a powerpoint on songs of different topics e.g love. The powerpoint must include text , images and music.
Mini Company: Unfortunately this week my group found out we couldn't sell the product we had planned from the start. We changed our idea to an eyebrow kit. The eyebrow kit will include many things and is starting to develop. We got permission and did our survey this week.

Mini Company Talk
The week has flown by as usual but this week the Transition Years something very exciting. We had planned all our work for the Naas Odeon Cinema where out Mini Company Talk was going to be held but unfortunately the woman Orla couldn't make it yesterday.
We were all seated in the cinema and about half 10 in the morning we got the news she wouldn't be able to make it and to our surprise we would be watching "Skyfall - James Bond" , the excitement throughout the audience was brilliant. The film was amazing with all the action in it etc. When leaving the cinema we also got a goodie bag which contained popcorn, randoms , a drink and a free Madagascar beaker. The day had gone very well and everyone enjoyed it. The staff from the cinema were very nice to let us watch us a movie and also give us a goodie bag! We are all so thankful for the day.
Bye for now!
