Mini Company Competition

Today we had our mini company competition. We first set up ours stands and then the judges came in to look at our stalls.
My groups mini company is called Book Free Study, it is a USB with study notes and tips for third years so they don't have to carry home a heavy bag.
When we set up our stands the judges then came  around to see our stands and ask us our company names. Then we had to go up to the judges in our groups and tell them about our business and answer any questions they may have. I was very nervous to do this but luckily it was fine.
After lunch we came back down to the hall to find out the results. Two groups made it into the final, They are  and Bam Beauty. Iprotect is a company that sells a product that protects your iPhone chargers and earphones from breaking. Bam Beauty is a company that sells make-up bags.

Mullingar



Yesterday our TY group went to Mullingar arts centre to show our dramas.
We had seven groups from our school who performed dramas at the competition. Our dramas were judged and if we get through, we go to Cork to perform our dramas again. We wrote our the scripts ourselves and we have been practising them since the start of the year.
Our play is about child abuse and even though we were all very nervous it went very well. It was our first time performing the play on stage with all the lights. I was working with the props and making sure we had all the right props and I also was an extra in the play. After the play the judge told us what went wrong in our play so we could know what we needed to work on. We will hear soon if we have made it to Cork.
