gaisce update
Community work:
for my community service I decided to go to Shankill old folks association every Wednesday from 1.30pm-3.30pm where I helped out with the old people serving them food, giving them a hand up and just anything they need or want. I also decided to pick this as my 26-week challenge as well. I really enjoyed this one as I loved chatting to all the old people and I had such great time and I plan on continuing it.
Recreational work:
For my recreational activity I chose karate as I already did it and I enjoyed it a lot and it is great fun. Also, it was a great way for me to continue training to help me grade which I did and I am now a brown belt. I will also continue to train until I grade again hopefully in summer time to get my second brown only one belt away from a black after that.
Personal skill:
For my personal skill I took up cooking as I think it is a great skill to be able to learn and think everyone should have to learn it. I began making easy enough dishes such as stir fry’s and baking cakes. As my skills improved I began to make more challenging dishes such as curries and birthday cakes. I am also finished my thirteen weeks of the cooking but I will continue it on.

Introduction
during transition year I have decided that I will challenge myself and go for the presidents award. For my recreational activity I have decided to do karate for my thirteen week course. For my community service I will be doing from 1.30-3.30pm on a Wednesday afternoon in the shankill day care centre for the elder. And for a skill I have learnt I have decided to take up cooking which I really enjoy! I will be adding pictures to my blog shortly.
new years update
I have been the Shankill nursing home for roughly now 14/15 weeks now and i am really enjoying it!! I have really bonded with all the staff and clients there in the nursing home that it almost feels like a little family, its great to have a chat with the clients even if its small it doesn't matter as all they want is a chat. I have attended birthday parties at the nursing home for people as old as 97 years old. I also attended both Christmas parties the first for the Wednesday club and the second one for the clients who go on Monday and Friday.
