All first years are assigned a 6th year buddy who
acts as a mentor to them during the year.
A group of sixtheen sixth years volunteer their time
and energy to help first years to settle in.
Each sixth year meets a small group of five first years
once a week during class time until November.
After the mid-term break and there after they meet at break
and lunch-time.
If the first year has any difficulties or worries during the year
he can go to his buddy who will help him sort it out.
The sixth year buddies also organise events for first years
during the year.
These include soccer leagues, music classes, ceili's, and quizes.
