A Trip to Bantry Driving Academy has been organised for Transition Year Students on Tuesday Nov 14th. In the driving academy students will get 3 hours of instruction including the opportunity to drive a car around a privately developed road network including roundabouts, road signs etc. They will also learn how to change a tyre and identify various features under the car bonnet. This will develop their knowledge around road safety, car features and safe driving. They will need to bring a packed lunch. 

The Bus will leave Skibbereen Community School at 9:15 sharp and return to the school at 3:50 PM.

Since this is a School trip, the students will be required to follow the teachers’ instructions and Event organisers at all times and abide by the School’s Code of Behaviour.

Please Note: No Students will be allowed to depart the bus on the return Journey at any time, other than Skibbereen, unless the student is being collected by a parent/guardian by prior arrangement.

Cost of Trips: €55. You will be required to complete the permission form before you can compete the payment. Please complete the form and make payment via the below options by Tuesday 7th of Nov 2023
