P7 Residential information

Our P7 pupils have asked us to investigate on their behalf an adventure residential trip to celebrate the end of their school life in St. Joseph’s and the friendships they have made over the last 7 years.  

We have endeavoured to keep the price as low as possible whilst also providing a memorable experience for our children.  A great 2 day/1 night package has been offered to us by Carlingford Adventure in Dundalk, departing from school at 8.30am on Mon 15th May & returning on Tues 16th May around 5.15pm.  The school will heavily subsidise the cost of the trip to keep costs down. Children who wish to attend will need to pay £60 to help us cover the costs of all meals, activities, buses and accommodation.

(Top tip from parents last year– many children used their birthday, Christmas & Confirmation money to cover the cost of their trip)

This trip is not compulsory and will only go ahead if we have enough numbers to fill the criteria.
