Transition Year students in Presentation De La Salle College, Bagenalstown enjoy Kayaking on the River Barrow, during Physical Education Class, with Instructors from Baltinglass Outdoor Education Centre.
The programme is specifically tailored to facilitate an activity-based module for transition year students. The course enables T.Y. students to develop new skills, both personal and technical in an outdoor setting.
Throughout the experience the staff at the centre place equal emphasis on teamwork and on each student identifying their own strengths and weaknesses. By encouraging each student to overcome challenges this programme can teach students important and necessary water safety skills
