Geography Field Trip to Mitchelstown Caves 1st Years had a great day out at Mitchelstown Caves today, where they enjoyed a guided tour and learned about the cave’s impressive formations. With the weather on our side, we made the most of it with a walk in Glengarra Woods before heading home. Of course, no trip is complete without a stop in Fermoy for a bite to eat, which was much appreciated after a busy morning. A well-rounded day of exploration and fresh air!
