School Retreats in Monaghan – Save hundreds of Euro!
Adventure Retreats Ireland are offering free bus transport to and from their centre in Tanagh to Monaghan-based primary and secondary schools as part of a new initiative to promote personal and spiritual development within the county.  Adventure Retreats is an initiative of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts based in Tanagh Co Monaghan, about two miles from Cootehill.
The project offer schools a complete range of retreats from confirmation preparation right through to sixth year retreats. What makes Adventure Retreats unique from other retreat houses is its creative link with Monaghan VEC’s Outdoor Centre in Tanagh. The youth get a blend of physical, mental and spiritual activities on their day out.
Director of the Project, Shane Halpin says, “The response to our school retreats was amazing last year and we would encourage you to look at our testimonies from teachers and chaplains from the schools we engaged with last year on our website  www.damiencentre.ie.”
The day retreat commences at 10am and finishes at 4pm.  Children arrive at their school for collection at 9am and are returned for collection at or before 5pm.  The cost of the day retreat which includes all adventure activities is just €22 per child, no hidden extras and no bus costs!  Children bring their packed lunches as normal!  A complete change of clothes, towel, and old runners is required for the fun-filled day!
For more information contact us at 049 5552245 or via email on info@damiencentre.ie  – this is a limited offer and will be based on a first come first served basis for Monaghan-based schools.
