"Arrive as a group, leave as a team"

All 5th year students, as part of St. Brigid's Skills@Work Programme, took part in 3 sessions of team building at Team Dynamics. This involved a visit from Mr. Kevin Mahon and his experienced facilitators form Team Dynamics, whereby students were spoken to on the key values of teams and their importance in the world of work.

A day of fun activities was planned for the students, at the Team Dynamics centre in Kilkenny that would help to foster team building by the assisting the students in improving:

  • Communication skills
  • Listening skills
  • Trust

Ability to work together

  • Activities included:
  • Balloon Tower building
  • Mind Challenges
  • Brain Teasers
  • Spiders Web
  • Floor puzzles

At the end of the day, students completed an evaluation form and analysed:

  • What they may have learned about themselves?
  • How well their team worked?
  • Did every member participate?
  • Did a leader emerge?

Finally on October 15th, Team Dynamics arrived back into St. Brigid's with some feedback and presented the students with Certificates of Achievement.
