Sixth class students get early introduction to secondary school with Limerick Youth Service

Sixth class students got an early introduction to secondary school with Limerick Youth Service.

SIXTH class students got an early introduction to second level education during the Easter holidays, taking part in the ‘Moving On Up’ programme with Limerick Youth Service (LYS).

The students, who will be enrolling in first year in Hazelwood College, Dromcollogher, took part in the one-day programme that introduced them to their respective new school and classmates.

“While the start of secondary school can be an exciting time, for some students it can be quite a daunting experience,” said Eithne Stembridge of LYS.

“Our programme includes workshops that give students the space to explore any feelings of anxiety or excitement that they may feel ahead of starting secondary school.”
