Killary Adventure Centre

The annual Transition Year trip to Killary Adventure Centre will take place in Spring 2023. This is a bonding week full of excitement and fun and is one of the highlights of TY. The students participate in many activities during the week- abseiling, high ropes course, giant swing, kayaking, gorge walking, orienteering and the Killary challenge, to name a few. See The Patrician magazine on the welcome page of the website.
