Our 4th year students paid a visit to Mondello Park on Thursday to participate in the EARLY DRIVE for schools road safety programme.

This programme is designed to give students the opportunity to learn about driver safety in a practical way in the safe and extensive facilities of Mondello Park in Kildare.

Our students received talk on road safety and got the chance to experience a break reaction simulator. Each student also received a 20 minute in-car driving lesson with a professional driving instructor.

Students were treated to a talk on the history of Modello Park as well as a tour of the facilities onsite including the Museum of Motorsport.
