Monday 19 June 2006 First day at school Andrea Petrin

We met at the school cafeteria at 9am. Kathleen, our host, welcomed us and gave us a sheet of paper. A band was playing at Radio City Club that night, you could read.
At class, our teacher Louise Höfler, told us some things about her life and asked us about ours. Most of us had to speak about where they live, pets and siblings and so on. In the break we were given the programme for the upcoming week. Some of us went to the library after school; they let us use the Internet for free there. We had the afternoon off, some of us went shopping. We got off the Dart at Tara station and walked Westside to the O'Connell monument over the O'Connell bridge and went until the Spire, which was built in 2003 and was expensive, turned left to Henry Street to go shopping there.

In the evening we met at Bayside station at 8pm to go to the centre to se the concert, Kathleen told us about. So we go off at Tara Street again and on to the Radio City Club. We went down in small groups as Kathleen had advised us and listened to the music. We met at 11.15 to take the last train home to Baldoyle.
