From Irish driftwood to a special keepsake! 🇮🇪🇪🇸
Our Erasmus students enjoyed a fantastic woodworking lesson, transforming a piece of Irish driftwood into a beautiful handcrafted pen , a unique souvenir to bring home to Spain!

Tomorrow, we say goodbye to Leyre, Germán and Sophia as they return to Spain after their Erasmus experience in Ireland.
But the adventure doesn’t end here! Their Irish host students will travel to Spain in November for the next chapter of this wonderful exchange!

Wishing you all a safe journey home! ☘️

Exploring the History and Heritage of North Kerry!
Our Spanish exchange students got a wonderful taste of North Kerry culture and heritage as part of their Erasmus+ experience with our school!
From the coastal views and historic ruins of Ballybunion Castle, to Ballyeigh Strand, where we learned about the famous 1834 faction fight, and on to Rattoo Round Tower, where we explored our rich early medieval monastic heritage.
It was a fantastic opportunity to share our local history, stories and stunning landscapes with our Spanish visitors, making memories and friendships along the way!
Bienvenidos a Kerry! 🇪🇸🇮🇪
