Seo blaiseadh beag den spraoi agus spórt a bhí ag na gasúir óga (aois 3-6) ag Campa Spraoi Locha Riach a bhí ar siúl coicís ó shín. Bhí an-am ag na gasúir agus an fhoireann agus tá muid ag súil go mór leis an gcéad bhliain eile! 😊-
Here’s a little taste of the fun and games that was had by the younger children (ages 3-6) at Campa Spraoi Locha Riach which took place two weeks ago. A great time was had by both the children and the staff and we’re really looking to next year’s camp! 😊
