We have enjoyed a fantastic first day at Shannaghmore on our P6/7 residential trip. The weather has been fabulous, we could definitely feel Spring in the air today. We arrived around 11:30 and after receiving all our equipment we had a lovely hot lunch and set off for our first activity- canoeing at Castlewellan. It was brilliant fun and we were able to stop off and explore a little island on the lake. After dinner we went to the beach for a night time walk. It was lovely seeing the lighthouse in the distance and all the lights from the nearby town of Newcastle illuminating the coastline. Supper was toast tonight and after a game of empires in the common room everyone is tucked up in bed ready for another fun and action packed day tomorrow.
