International Day of Friendship

Happy International Day of Friendship!
Friendship is at the heart of everything we do here at Killorglin CFRC β the friendships made over coffee mornings, in our parent groups, and between the little ones in our services.
Today, why not reach out to a friend you haven't spoken to in a while? A quick message can mean the world. π
Tag a friend who brightens your day π

Adventure mode: ON! π΄π¦
Our Laune Childcare summer camp squad went wild (literally!) exploring the jungle-like magic of Kells Bay Gardens β tropical plants, secret pathways, wobbly rope bridge crossings π (brave adventurers only!), and maybe a dinosaur or two π¦π It's definitely worth a visit if you haven't been!
Then on the way home a quick stop to Rossbeigh Beach for sandy toes and big giggles! Best. Day. Ever. πβοΈ #LauneChildcareService #SummerCamp #KellsBayGardens #RossbeighBeach ... See MoreSee Less
