On this page it is intended to show samples of work by students from the school. This will include poetry, artwork, Home Economics, Engineering and Construction Studies projects etc. We are currently photographing examples of these and hope to have this section up and running by the end of April. For now we have included some poems by our second year students which were entries in The Amergin Memorial Poetry Competition organised by the actor Patrick Bergin.The theme of the competition was Birds
The Crow
The old crow perches there
On a tall tree top
Everything black
No stars in the sky.
But himself perched safe and high.
The silence is broken
By the sound of his cries
Caw. Caw. Caw.

The Hawk
As the moon is glowing
In the old dark lane
The tiny mouse
Runs across the grass
As watching from the sky
The fierce looking hawk
Swoops down and catches…
HIM

Birds
Birds are such beautiful things
Their colour, their shape and their wings.
The sight of them flying so high in the sky
Makes one wish you could give it a try
Some migrate for the winter
you see them arrive back for the summer
refuelled full of glee
The robin, it isn't his nature to go
He hangs around all winter
in rain and in snow

Why?
Deep inside me there is a bird
A bird that wants to fly up high
Into the sky
But I can't
Why, Why, Why, Can't I fly?
I try, I try but I just can't seem to fly.
Deep inside me there is a bird
A big bird that wants to spread
It's wings as far as possible
Deep me inside me there is a bird that
wants to float in the sea
along the small waves.
Deep inside me there is a bird
that wants to roll around in the soft white snow
I wrote this because I want you to realise that everyone should not be judged by the outside but what they are like on the inside
Deep inside everyone if you look hard enough you will find an inner animal and mine is a bird.
You are what you are inside, not what you are on the outside.

The Robin
The robin flies through the air
Her wings barely flapping in the dark night
She finds her way through the thick bush
But where can she find food this late?
She thinks of her nestlings starving at home
She carries on courageously
It will soon be dawn.
