• P6K Shannaghmore Day 2

  Tue 18 Sep 2018

  The sun is shining at Shannaghmore! Everyone is in good spirits after having a hearty breakfast and completing an adventure walk this morning at Tollymore. 

   

  We all had an exciting and challenging afternoon taking on the high ropes course and exploring the Mourne mountains.

   

  What a fantastic last evening! P6K got competitive during our quiz night and rose to the challenge of composing and performing their own Shannaghmore songs. 

  

• P6K Shannaghmore Day 1

  Mon 17 Sep 2018

  P6 have arrived safely at Shannaghmore.  We got our rooms organised and collected our equipment before lunch.  Everyone enjoyed the chips and fish fingers, some people even had seconds which was a good idea as we knew we had a busy afternoon ahead of us.  

  All groups headed to Bloody Bridge for wet bouldering! 

   

  We finished off day 1 with an evening beach walk at Murlough bay and supper back at base.

• Harvesting our vegetable beds!

  Thu 30 Aug 2018
  It was great to be back to school and see what had grown so fantastically over the Summer months. We had carrots, cabbages, onions, beetroot, scallions, apples and a great variety of herbs. We have yet to harvest our potatoes. It was great to be able to hand over so much of our produce to the school canteen who will use them over the nest few days.
