Trips Week 2025
Last week, the College’s traditional ‘Trips Week’ to place with pupils in non-examination years participating in a series of international and national trips. Forty eight pupils from Forms I and II spend six days in southern Spain, soaking up the culture, food and language of the region. They took part in a guided tour of Malaga, Malaga Cathedral, explored Seville and El Alcácar, visited the Butterfly Park at Mariposario, a visit to the Alhambra Palace, the Museo Picasso, the Alcazaba, Málaga stadium and much more. It was a fantastic trip and many thanks to the Modern Language department for their organisation. The remaining Form I and II pupils, who remained in Ireland, had a series of day trips including a visit to Dublin Zoo, Emerald Park, Dublinia & Christchurch Cathedral and walked up Bray Head.
Pupils in Form IV (Transition Year) travelled west to Achill Island for some outdoor adventures while Form V also headed to the west coast, visiting the unique landscape of the Burren, carrying out some geography and biology fieldwork.
Many thanks to all the staff who organised the trips. Below is a photo gallery from all the trips last week.
