General Information
Ramblers Ireland accepts boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 13. The day begins at 9:30 and finishes at 3:00. Each ramblers group will consist of no more than 22 children accompanied by 2 Leaders. All of of our leaders are either qualified teachers, trained scout leaders or, teachers in training. Each Leader has successfully completed a one day training course and has been garda vetted. Public transport is our mode of transport for our journeys. We are based in the lower car park in Willow Park School which is located immediately to your right as you enter Willow off Rock Road. For communication purposes, all parents/guardians are included in a WhatsApp Group which we will create a few days before the camp starting date. Destinations for each day are posted the evening before along with the advice on what to wear/bring etc.... We also encourage our Leaders to to keep the group updated with news, photos of the days activities. To ensure that there is no hanging around for the parents, the group's arrival time back in Willow will be posted on the chat too. We try and keep the arrival time as close as possible to 3:00 but, because we are using public transport, there may be a delay of up to 30 minutes in our arrival time.
