Time for reflection at Dublin Retreat Centre

At half term now of the 2025/26 academic year, all at La Salle Retreat Centre Dublin have a chance to reflect after a very busy and very fast eight weeks of retreats, hikes and reflection days.

Never before has the demand for our Glendalough retreat been so great and we find ourselves on the country roads to Wicklow, the Garden of Ireland, nearly as much as on the M50 motorway to Ballyfermot in Dublin. Regardless of the location however, the enthusiasm, curiosity and hunger for meaning and purpose in life, has never been more evident in the students who are coming to us.

While we are always assured by our loyal bank of schools who return to us year in and year out, we are also attracting many new schools with the schedule and calendar for the year to come being jam-packed. The interest and need for the safe sanctuary we provide has never been more pronounced and as a retreat team, we are grateful for the opportunity to accompany our young people as they navigate life in these challenging times.
