Expression of Interest in Barista Course


A few of you have asked if there could be a group Barista course organised. I'm happy to organise.


A note to say that there will be a cost (TBC) for anyone taking this course.



Together Academy

A message from to Daniel, Luke, Robert and William for helping set up and strike the Together Academy Cafe in Wanderers RFC this week from Madeline. Thanks to "brilliant lads working hard to help set up the café. Pictured with them is our Occupational Therapist (Jack) and new work experience students"


SOAR Foundation Workshop



From talking with the group it sounds like almost everyone got a lot from the day. Sometimes these workshops can bring up emotions, which is normal living in this complex world. More from SOAR can be found here


(For parents reading this - I would encourage you to ask your son about the workshop and their experiences. SOAR have prepared this helpful parents' resource that is worth some of your time)


UCD Astro Blitz

Great afternoon in UCD with everybody creating such a fantastic atmosphere despite (or maybe because?!) of the rain. Lots of you talked about wanting to continue this blitz into league. TY Reps and I will be meeting soon so we'll make plans.
