Transition year consists of organising work placements several times throughout the year (some of which include the filming of an RTÉ documentary in China and working at Milan Fashion Week) as well as much more such as a school trip abroad for roughly a week. Past destinations have included Munich, Italy and Spain. Every week the students walk down to the nearby Independent Theatre Workshop studios (renowned for being one of the best in Ireland) for an hour of dance and drama classes. This is just one of many class modules (there is also cooking, horticulture, yearbook, film making, fitness and many more).
