EIL Intercultural Learning

On Saturday the 10th of October 2009 The Tipperary EIL group had their First of many to come Group Outings. The day was bright and fresh as the International bus departed for Cobh to visit and explore the Cobh heritage centre. All aboard the Bus were in high spirits and excited to be together in a group as many of the students had not met since the official orientation. On arrival to the Heritage centre all students were full of anticipation and curiosity. Here all had the opportunity to explore and absorb some very interesting facts and parts of Irish History. Everything from the queenstown story, Famine and Emigrations, Convict ships , the famous Titanic and the Lusitania. After all this information a group lunch was well earned. During lunch it was voted that some retail therapy was called for on the return journey home. The group happily spent one hour in both Douglas Court , and Mahon Point. All returned to the bus happily swinging shopping bags

Great day enjoyed by all

The only thing that remains to be confirmed the many unanswered questions of" when can we go again "
Great success .
