The children had a wonderful morning in Malahide Castle today. They went to the playground, had a picnic and then went on a nature walk to the front of Malahide Castle. They saw buds of new flowers and beautiful daffodils and bluebells and some children even saw some beetles! They also found the bus journey very exciting!  Happy Thursday ☺
