On Thursday, June 14th, fifth and sixth classes went to Dunmore East Activity Centre for their school tour.  We left Portlaw at 8.45 a.m. and set off for Dunmore East which is about twenty miles from Portlaw.

The next day we didn't have to go into school until 10:00 (thank God). Every one said they had a lovely day.
