We have an additional NEW afternoon camp in “Art” running for a week in August.

For further details on the NEW Art Camp or If you wish to enquire about running an afternoon camp in August for one week (there is one slot available) please contact the Parish Office immediately!

There is also a scheduled maintenance week in August where for eg the floor is sanded & revarnished to keep the hall in tip top order.

Some activities wind up for the summer and some keep going eg the Senior Citizens are there every Wednesday & Friday morning except when camps and maintenance are taking place.

The Parish Hall Programme runs from 1st September - 31st August. Expressions of interest in using the Parish Hall take place in late May & early June - based on this information a Programme is put together to satisfy requests as best as possible. A balance of weekly activities & special events are timetabled - many are of a cultural & creative nature and some casual recreation.

So weekly activities for this year so far include eg Senior Citizens, Cards, Bridge, Pilates, Drama, Irish Dancing, Leithinis Slow Sessions and Councillors Clinics! This year we hope to add in the NEW Music Makers on some Friday nights also!

Special events & blocked events also taking place are the Men’s Shed - “Gerry & the Plonkers” for one Wednesday 12- 2pm in October, November & December. It is hoped that a Photography & Art exhibition will take place in November followed by the Drama Production. Then the Annual Christmas Craft Fair! At the end of January it is hoped to have more “Tradfest Fingal” coming to the Parish Hall and in May yet another great Drama Production.
