Lats week we celebrated our annual Wellbeing Week. On Tuesday we were delighted to have Dearbhail visit us to speak to us about all things Autism related.

On Wednesday we welcomed Eibhilin O’Gorman for some Mindfulness workshops where we all learned about trying to live in the present moment. On Thursday we held a Bake Off event to raise money for Cork Mental Health who presented a very informative talk to Senior classes earlier in the year.
