Class tour to Turoe Pet Farm on wednesday, 23rd June








































Our class and Miss Gilligan's class went on our school tour together today to Turoe Pet Farm. We had a wonderful time and it was such a memorable and enjoyable day. We travelled on the bus and Paddy was our driver. We saw lots of interesting things on the journey there and back. When we arrived we went to an adventure/activity center and played there for a while. Then we had something to eat and went on a tour of the farm. We all got a chance to feed and pet some of the animals. The Kerry sheep were simply adorable and were a big hit with us all as were the little donkeys and the peacocks to name just a few. When we had seen all the animals we got to go and play in the outdoor playground which was amazing fun, especially together with all our friends. Lastly we went inside to the inflatable kingdom and got to go on the giant inflatable slide. It was terrific!! Miss Flaherty and Miss Gilligan even had a go!! A big thank you to Anne, Miss Carleton and Mrs Phelan for coming along with us today and for all their help.
