School Walk, 27th April 2015

The long-term weather forecast for Monday, 27th April had been for snow. So with some trepidation the whole school left  Stratford College at 9am basking in sunshine - what lay ahead no-one could tell! The school set off from Crone Wood car park, to walk a part of the Wicklow Way which skirts Djouce Mountain. With huge black clouds on the horizon the pace set by Ms. Kenny and Ms. Finnegan was fast. After a few food and drinks breaks - somewhat shorter than usual - the 10km walk ended above Lough Tay on the Roundwood-Glendalough road. The walk was completed in a record time of 3 hours.  Everyone was just seated down in their bus ... when it started to snow!  Thanks to the 5th Year LCVP class and Ms. Brouder for organising a great day which was all in aid of the Irish Heart Foundation.  Go to the LCVP/Business blog for more details and photos.
