Term One modules
1. Relationships and sex education
RSE Project
Our first project task of the year was to do a project for RSE class on any topic related to relationships and sex. I chose to study the STI Gonorrhea because we briefly studied it in class, so I wanted to further my knowledge on the topic. I started by gathering information about the disease. I typed it out and got photos to go with it and explain it further. When I had all my images and text printed out I stuck down my project. In doing this project I feel like I have deepened my knowledge and understanding of this STI.
2. Forensic science
This module was my favourite out of all three. It was very interesting to see how CSI workers and detectives figure out crimes and each week brought something new to learn about, from fingerprints to tire tracks to coming up with an explanation to a crime.
I also enjoyed watching CSI during the last two classes as we could see all the techniques we had learned about in the previous weeks come into action.

3. Politics and Society
Unfortunatly I didn't enjoy this module as much as I did the others as history wouldn't be my favourite subject and I don't know much about the late 1900's. However I did love learning about discrimination in America and how Rock N' Roll had a big effect on society.
It was fun to listen to old music, learning about Rock N' Roll artists and having class debates about the ways of the past.

Term Two Modules
French Project - Vietnam
1. Nutrition
Nurtriton was our second term module. It has been my favourite module because I loved learning about how to keep fit and healthy and all about food. For this modules project we could choose anything around nutrition, I chose the air diet and I found it really interesting to research the diet and present it.
2. Careers
I enjoyed this modules because I enjoyed finding out more about my dream job and also taking quizzes to see which careers I would be compatible with.
3. Mindfulness
I really enjoyed this module and project. I found it really relaxing and it was nice to take time out of the busy day just to be. I'd have loven for the module to last longer because I thouroughly enjoyed it.
Term three modules
1. Art appreciation
This module was very helpful to me because I chose art as a leaving cert subject so it helped me understand more about the theory side of art and less about the practical. We were given the chance to do a project on any artist of your choice which was interesting to find out information about the chosen artist.
2. Leadership
I found this modules project extremely interesting. We had to compare a leader of our choice to Neloson Mandela. It was very interesting to find out facts about world leaders and how they influenced society.
Final Term
1. Pottery
I loved this module because I enjoy art and found it relaxing and fun to make our glazed pieces.
2. Public Speaking
This module pushed me way out of my comfort zone as it involved presenting your speeches an external examiner who was grading us. I chose the topic 'school' and enjoyed the writing process of this exam.
3. Health and safety
In this module we learned how to keep safe particularly focusing in the work place.
