Hi everyone. We are very happy to welcome you in our school.

My name is Kitti Nemeth and I'm

currently a 5th year student. I came to Boherbue Comprehensive School a year ago. At that time
everything was new to me, the people, the school system, and even the language. I was nervous,
full of fears and lost like a 5 year old in a shopping center. What bought me out of that awkward
situation was the community of this school. Starting from the first day I was supported by my
teachers; I could always turn to them with my questions, which was crucial to me at that time to
understand the curriculum. I got surrounded by other students and with time I formed frienships
and I got to be a part of this community.

I absolutely understand that you have insecurities about your future school and that it's a tough to
leave your known enironment behind, but as Charles Darwin said "It is not the strongest of the
species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.". There is
going to be lots f changes in your life and this will certainly be a great one. You have to get the
most out of it and this school can provide you with everything you need to do so.

There are secondary and technical subject that you can chose from, which gives you a great
chance to show and develope your strenghts and abilities. Sport also plays an important part in
school life. Here we have many facilities for different kind of sport activities, for example football,
basketball, ladies football, athletics and tenis. The school has enjoyed great sporting success
over the years and has won the title of Irelands Fittest School in 2015/2016.

In our school you have the choice of going into Transition Year, which provides personal and
social development and also a little relaxation before the Leaving Cert. A very exciting part of the
Transition Year Curriculum is the Personal Development Programme. During the school year TY
students have the opportunity to experience and study a variety of outdoor, indoor and
educational courses ranging from Team Building, Coaching, First Aid, Drivers Education, ECDL,
Mini Company, self defence to work experience.

If you would like to be part of a friendly and carrying community where you can develope yourself
than I would recomend our school. Thank you for your attention and I hope that I can meet you in
the coming year in one of the corridors.
