Barretstown Residential TY Programme
Our TY year group is delighted to be partnering with Barretstown and their TY Residential Programme. We have a small group of students who have put their name forward to partake in the programme and help fundraise money over the course of the year.
Barretstown’s Residential TY Programme is an exciting residential experience which takes place on the beautiful 500-acre Barretstown campus.
Next May our group of our TY students will stay in the campus for one week. It will give them the opportunity to spend time away in a fun, safe and educational environment, learn new skills and also gives students an insight into the work undertaken by Barretstown to support children and families affected by serious illness.
This morning we travelled to Barretstown for a tour of the campus, a presentation from the staff and a workshop on fundraising. A huge thanks to Ann, Lauren and Irene for facilitating us.
Each student has a target of raising €500 and we will be organising several events over the course of the year.
A donation link will be set up in the coming weeks and any contributions or support will be greatly appreciated!
