Memories to Last a Life-Time - S3 Retreat Reflections

Memories to Last a Life-Time - S3 Retreat Reflections

S3 visited the Isle of Arran over the course of a few days as part of their most recent retreats. Retreats are an important part of St Aloysius' College life - and start when our pupils are in Junior School. They are special times to connect with each other and connect with God through group activities and prayer. We get to know each other better, as we share our thoughts, hopes, dreams, and even our fears and what worries us. 

Retreats are always a special occasion, but they can be made even more special with a stunning location such as Arran. We enjoyed a Mass overlooking the sea, a bonfire at night with a sing-along, and getting to make new friends and memories. 

We sat down with our S3s to speak about their experience on their retreat. They spoke about their favourite aspects of their time away, and what will stay with them now that they are back. Watch below:
