A Visit from Garda Orla

October 13, 2022

Garda Orla from Macroom Garda station came to visit our school on Tuesday. Garda Orla showed us all of her equipment and allowed us to hold the baton and try on the handcuffs! 1st and 2nd class were very lucky they even got to go out to her car, they got to sit into the car and see all of the buttons inside! We had great fun. Garda Orla spoke to our class about crossing the road safely and how to be safe inside the car by wearing your seatbelt and never distracting the driver. She told us about the different jobs that guards do.
Thanks Garda Orla!
