PLEASE ACCEPT THIS INVITATION TO JOIN US
…and TELL YOUR FRIENDS
Last week we went camping to Ballinacourty Caravaning and Camping site in the Glens of Aherlow; pre-school and primary school kids with parents, grandparents and friends joined in the fun. In the mornings and evenings, with the backdrop of the Galty mountains, the children went on scavenger hunts looking for leaves and wild plants, they searched the campus for orienteering clues, they played tennis, fooze ball, kickers, badminton and soccer with their friends and families, and they roasted marshmallows over the campfire as they sang a medley of songs. And during the days, they went for a guided tour of Griston Bog near Ballylanders, an historical tour around Lough Gur, kayaked in the stillness of the lake, attempted some rock climbing, orienteering and archery at Kilfinane Outdoor Adventure Centre, visited the Donkey Sanctuary in Liscarroll, took a quick stroll around Doneraile Park and playground and generally had one heck of a good time which we called “real education!”. Many thanks to Heather Fleming and all the parents who joined wholeheartedly into the spirit of things and gave their children wonderful memories, and to Mags Sheehy for keeping the school open for those who were unable to partake in the experience.
