On Monday the 16th of March our school held a fashion made entirely of recycled goods in the hope of getting a green flag for our school.
The morning was spent rushing and racing around the school trying to make sure that everything was in order for the afternoon’s events. Classes spent weeks working on fabulous dresses and outfits to match the occasion. T.Y students came together with the people of Cariglea to make wonderful costumes and involve them also.
The show was running smoothly and everything was going to plan, when we were graced with a strange surprise....After all the models had gone and musicians played, we expected to be sent on our way, but to our surprise the teachers decided they would shock us all and come out in their own costumes. Some, I would class as unrecognisable. It was hysterical.
After the show everyone was thrilled to get off school a couple of minutes early. The day was a great success and everyone had a brilliant time while raising awareness about the importance of keeping our environment clean and bringing us one step closer to getting our green flag.

The 23rd of March was a day filled with sweet smelling delicacies and mouth-watering dishes. It was the final of our annual T.Y cookery competition and everyone was eager to get going and show off our skills.
1 o’clock arrived and everyone began setting up their stations, having everything prepared for the hectic afternoon that was in store. The weather was lovely outside so that meant we were all overheating by the time we had to dish out our meals. The goal was to create either a healthy starter and main or main and desert that cost max €20.
Everyone made excellent dishes that would have your taste buds tingling with delight. The winners were announced at the end and the top three got prizes. After the awards and speeches were given we had a hefty amount of clean up to get through, but we even made that fun. Overall it was a great experience and everyone had fun taking part and showing off their cooking abilities.
