School Retreats..

Being Holy in Esker ...

From September until the end of May - the school year - young people come to Esker from all over the West of Ireland and much further afield for retreats.  The groups range from the final year in Primary School, for Confirmation retreats, to young people getting ready for their leaving exams.  Thousands of young people testify each year to the benefit they gain from being here.

The retreats vary from a school day to an overnight to two or three nights.  It's a great privilege being with all these wonderful people at this time in their lives
