Senior School Tour

13th Jun 2018

This year, our school tour took us to Spike Island in Cork Harbour and the Titanic Experience in Cobh, Co. Cork. The children were beyond thrilled when they realized the trip to Spike Island would involve a trip on a ferry/speedboat!! Our tour guides brought us up to speed with the history of the island and the children thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the old fortress & prison. We finished up with some outdoor activities and then took the ferry/boat back to the mainland to begin our Titanic Experience. Each visitor to the centre received a ‘boarding pass’ on arrival and following the tour, gets to find out if their passenger survived the sinking of the boat in 1912. The children had really worked up an appetite so our next stop was to Supermac’s, which was very kindly paid for by our Parent Association. An absolutely fantastic day was had by all - by all accounts it was ‘the best school tour EVER!!’
