The group meets every Thursday and Friday in the GPA, and you don't need to have any past knitting experience to take part; everybody is more than welcome to join in!

5th Year Trip - Carlingford

22nd November 2021
Dear Parent(s)/Guardians(s)
As advised at last year’s Transition Year Information Meeting, each year Transition Year students visit Carlingford Adventure Centre. Unfortunately due to the pandemic, our current 5th Years did not get this opportunity in TY which was a source of disappointment. On the request of the students,we are now delighted to offer it to them this year. They will be visiting Carlingford Adventure Centre in County Louth from Monday 28th to Wednesday 30th March 2022 inclusive.
This trip is a highly enjoyable one. Students take part in a wide variety of outdoor activities that focus on promoting communication, leadership and team building skills. It is a wonderful opportunity for the girls to bond with each other and to forge new friendships as they progress through Senior Cycle. The trip plays a key role in reaffirming the positive tone set during this year of personal challenge, adventure and social development.
The cost of the trip is €230, which includes meals, accommodation, all activities and transport costs from and back to the school. Activities include rock-climbing, abseiling, kayaking, hill-walking, canoeing, laser tag and zip-lining. Students do a morning and afternoon activity each day in the outdoors, in addition to a team building event each evening.
As it is necessary for us to secure our booking with Carlingford Adventure Centre, I would be grateful if you could arrange to pay the deposit of €100 by Wednesday, 1st December 2021. This can be done through Easy Payments Plus on our school website at www.olschool.ie. Alternatively, cheques may be made payable to Our Lady’s School and handed in to Reception in an envelope with your daughter’s name, class and ‘Carlingford’ written on the front.
Should you have any queries regarding the trip, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Many Thanks,
Yours faithfully,
Freda Kinsella
Year Head
