An expedition by train to Ballina, that was the Infants & First Class tour today- and for some it was their first time on a train! Cloonlyon NS are working towards their 11th Green Schools Flag, exploring how we can be more green in how we travel. The pupils have been learning how using available public transport options are an important step in reducing our carbon footprint.
Pupils boarded McCanns Bus, went to Ballyhaunis Train Station, boarded the train to Westport, changed at Manulla Junction, then hopped on the train to Ballina! A very busy morning indeed! Then a quick bus ride to Belleek Woods where the pupils went on a Fairy Trail Hunt - searching for clues and finding lots of fun! All pupils and staff had a great day out. Lunch on a train is much more fun than lunch in school!
