A fantastic day was had by all the senior room gang on their Alive Outside School Tour in Kilruddery Estate in Bray. The pupils got to undertake 2 land and 2 water activities throughout the day. The weather played ball and the sun was shining!

First up was some bush crafting where the pupils constructed an outdoor structure and made it comfortable and cosy. They had to work as teams and they could only use what nature provided around them. They built some fantastic structures and they were very handy when it came to eating their morning snack!

Next they all complete a portion of the Hell and Back/ Irelands Fittest Family course where they were put through their paces, and may have gotten just a little muddy (see pics!). All the pupils showed great team spirit as they encouraged each other through the obstacle course.

Following that, they took to the water in kayaks and had some fun on the lake…Some taking the leisurely approach and some giving the O’Donovan brothers a run for their money in the races!!

Final they got to experience more of Irelands Fittest family as they squealed their way down the fast paced slide or jumped off the platform into the lake. They finished the day with a well earned lunch and goody bag (provided by the company). Needless to say, it was a quiet bus journey back to school as both teachers and pupils took a badly needed rest!!

As always the pupil were impeccably well behaved and were highly complimented by the instructors. We were so proud of all the pupils who had a brilliant attitude to the activities and everyone gave something a go, some pupils overcoming fears along the way. I can safely say it was a school tour to remember!
