MCS YSI Speakout

On Friday the 22nd of March, Moate Community School’s Transition Year students attended the Young Social Innovators (YSI) Speak Out, in the Shearwater Hotel, Ballinasloe. Excited students from Galway, Offaly, Roscommon and Westmeath attended. The Speak Out offered a platform for students to display the Social Issue projects they had been working on over the last school year, through the use of music, dance, drama and posters. The projects from MCS covered a range of topics, from autism, to underage drinking and positive mental health. Over the past academic year, TY students have been busy researching and spreading awareness about their social issue.The day was a great success for all involved, and especially for our TY3 class, whose performance earned them the Most Creative & Passionate Performance award.  Well done to all the TY students and teachers involved.
