"The Pine Forest Art Centre extracted my children from the 'burbs for several years. It was easy to get them to the bus and when they returned in the evening they were full of fresh air and healthily tired. In addition they had achieved something every day, and at the end of the week came home with a bursting boxfull of paintings and crafted goodies. Knowing that they were with qualified teachers and given creative space with strong parameters was a great comfort. I can't recommend the Pine Forest highly enough!" D Wynne, Dunlaoghaire
