Faigheann na daltai obair bhaile gach lá Students get homework every day
Caithfidh gach dalta a bheith béasach sa seomra ranga agus sna pasáistí Every student must be polite in the classroom and on the corridors
Ní maith liom cuid de na rialacha ach tá said cothrom agus tá said ag teastáil I don’t like some of the rules but they are fair and they are needed
Má bhrisenn tú na rialacha bíonn tú i dtrioblóid leis an múinteoir. Faigheann tú obair bhreise nó scriobhann an múinteoir nóta i do dhialann. Uaireanta bíonn daltaí ar choimeád ag am lóin nó bíonn said i dtrioblóid leis an gceannaire bliana. If you break the rules you get in trouble with the teacher. You get extra work or the teacher writes a note in your journal. Sometimes students are on detention at lunchtime or they get in trouble with the Year Head.
