Etiquette workshop

On the same day as our first aid workshop we had an Etiquette workshop also, when I first heard of this I was very very confused because I had no idea what Etiquette was all we were told was to bring in our high heels, so I did.  I asked around to see if anyone knew what it was and as it turned out Etiquette is a code of behavior that delineates expectations for social behaviors according to contemporary conventional norms within a society, social class, or group, which really just means, we had a work shop on how to act correctly or as some people like to say "ladylike" in society.

The first thing we did was play an ice-breaker or two then we were shown a power point and video all about Etiquette and whats right and wrong.  We were told how to were our clothes, what clothes to wear even what underwear to wear.  after that we got up to walk the red carpet, we had to walk with a book on our head to make sure our spine was aligned and then we had to try and do it in our high heels, we were also taught how to sit politely and i found that helpful in an interview.  

Fun Walk

On Friday the second of october our whole school dressed up in 7 different colours:

• 1st years: pink
• 2nd years: purple 
• 3rd years: green
• transition years: yellow
• 5th years: blue
• 6th years: Black and white

Everyone came in at 9:05 with crazy brightly coloured clothes in so many different colours and they were all being very secretive about their dances and songs they would be preforming later.  We had our first two classes which for my class was a double science so I was happy.  After break we had Irish which we just spent doing face paint and  then a tutor class which i spent learning the dance because I was out but I learnt it in time and our class did very well.

Sadly we didn't win but it was a good day altogether.  After the 5th years had preformed some ty's had to leave to stand at the roads and tell people where to go I was one of them, I was with sarah and our spot was in the middle of st.Rapheals.

For my classes fun walk we decided to dress up as sunflowers and thunder clouds and our tutor dressed up as a mexican sun.  It was a great day and we had lots of fun.
