On of January 27 at 7 o’ clock the credit union quiz started. I was on a team with Ellie, Oscar and Adam. The quiz took place in one of the function rooms. Each team had a table to themselves and the families sat at the back. The questions started easy like: ‘What is the capital of Ireland?’ The first four rounds were pretty easy. After the first five rounds we got a short break and snack. After the break the questions started to get progressively harder. One of the questions was: ‘How many coloured cards are there per suit in a deck of cards?’ And another was: ‘What star sign comes last alphabetically?’ Overall there were seven other schools { Ratoath National School, St. Declan`s, St. Marys and St. Andrews, Curragh just to name a few.} The junior team came third overall in their category and the senior team came joint second overall. Sadly this wasn’t enough to go through to the next round, but third, second and first place all got €20 each. I really enjoyed myself and had a great time.
