Today saw our fellow Dominican school, St. Mary's Dominican College, Adelaide, South Australia, visit the school as part of their orchestra's trip to Ireland. The girls were ably looked after by our 5th Year prefects who accompanied them on a walking tour of Galway and then brought them back to the school where the orchestra put on a concert for 1st Year, Transition Year and music students. We wish our Australian cousins the very best as they leave Ireland and move onto the next leg of their trip in Austria.
