Day 4 marked the final day of a fantastic trip to Italy. After breakfast and checking out of the hotel, the group travelled to Verona where students enjoyed exploring the famous Casa di Gilletta balcony and courtyard and learning more about the story of Romeo and Juliet. The group then visited the impressive Arena Amphitheatre, one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheatres in the world.
Following this, students had some free time for shopping and food before travelling to the airport for the journey home. Thankfully, all flights and transfers went smoothly and everyone arrived home safe and sound.
The students were a credit to themselves, their families and the school throughout the tour. Their behaviour, enthusiasm and cooperation helped make the trip such an enjoyable and memorable experience for all involved.
Sincere thanks to all staff members (Ms. Casey, Ms. Hough, Ms. Fahy, Ms, Braide, Mr. Dunne and Mr. O’ Tuairisg) for their time, care and commitment in ensuring the success of the tour. Thanks also to parents/guardians for their support throughout the trip.
