Prospective Students Open Night

Ty trip to Achill -Turas go hAcaill

The TY year accompanied by Mr. Kelly, Mr. Hanrahan and Ms Walsh took a 2 night trip to Achill Island, Co. Mayo last Monday to Wednesday (25th- 27th September). They stayed in 'bean an tí' houses and participated in activities facilitated by Coláiste Acla. They took part in surfing, cliff diving, bog assault courses and kayaking. In the evenings they headed to the céili's where they learned (attempted) to dance and played games as well as the all important 20 minutes phone time! The weather was lovely until Wednesday when the island was soaked but this didn't stop us from having an excellent time. On Wednesday when everyone sat down to a hot bowl of soup to warm up there was an atmosphere of disappointment as we had to head back home after a fantastic 3 days of fun and laughs. Everyone enjoyed the trip and can't wait for another of its kind in the upcoming year.

Chuaigh na daltaí ón idirbhlian go hAcaill le triúir múinteoirí ón scoil- An t-Uasal Ó Ceallaigh, An t-Uasal Ó hAnracháin agus Iníon Breathnach Dé Luan seo caite. Mhair an turas ar feadh trí lá. D'fhanamar sna tithe le mna tí ón ceantar. Ghlacamar páirt sna himeachtaí ar nós surfáil, cadhcáil, pleidhchíocht poirteacht agus tumadh. Chuamar go dtí coláiste gach tráthnóna chun damhsa céilithe a fhoghlaim. D'imríomar cluiche spraoi agus don fiche nóiméad deireanach fuaireamar ár bhfóin. Bhí an aimsir go maith go dtí Dé Céadaoin nuair a bhí an hOileáin ar maos leis an báisteach a thit tharr an oíche ach níor chuir sé sin isteach orainn. Nuair a shuíomar síos don babhla anlann tráthnónna Céadaoin bhí saghas díomá ar gach duine mar bhí sé in am dul abhaile. Bhain gach duine taiteanamh as an turas agus táimid ag súil leis an chéad turas eile!

TY Students Enjoy A Great Day Out, in West Clare

On May 4th, TYs left the school promptly at 9am as they were warned that the tide would not wait for us. We hit the water at 10am and students thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Thanks to the instructors at Bens Surf Clinic, everyone had a safe lesson and had great fun. Students were exhausted after the lesson and needed a little mutual support to get out of their surfing gear. Our next activity – a cliff walk from Liscannor along the cliffs of Moher. The weather was in our favour as it was dry and clear. Students enjoyed the magnificent views and had lunch looking out over the Atlantic. The views were stunning. TYs and staff thoroughly enjoyed the day.
