The afternoon saw Elma Walsh of the Donal Walsh LiveLife Foundation speak about the work they do.
“This is our tenth year organising an event for the transition years,” said Fr Padraig Walsh of Our Lady and St Brendan’s Parish. “It’s a day for reflection for young people. We try to present topics which would be of interest to them and connect that with the gospel message,” he said. Scroll down for photos…
