Filed Trip to Howth

We have rescheduled our Howth trip for this Thursday 23rd November. A note has gone home regarding this trip in the children's folders. The cost of the trip is €3.50 per child, I will start collecting this tomorrow.

We will be walking in the countryside so the children should wear old but comfortable footwear and clothes. Coats must be worn.

If any parents would like to join us please let me know. Thanks :)
