School Retreat Update

Scripture Union has provided faith-based retreats to students in Primary and Secondary schools for over 15 years. These retreats aimed to help young people explore questions of faith and life from a Christian perspective, offering value to all students, regardless of their beliefs.

While we continue to be passionate about helping young people connect with God, we have shifted our focus and no longer provide this service. Through our ever-growing resources and events, we are working to create sustainable and contextualized pathways to support those already situated in schools.

If you are an R.E. Teacher or Chaplain and are curious about how Scripture Union might be able to support you, please contact: schools@scriptureunion.ie or complete the form at the end of the page.
