Pallas Driving School
Our Transition Year Group recently enjoyed a brilliant day of learning at the Pallas Driving School, Portumna. After completing a work shop where students focused on the material to revise for the Driver Theory Test, the group took to the road when each student received an individual Driving Lesson from a qualified instructor. High rev’s and false starts were aplenty! Our TY group gained great confidence from the day and look forward to getting behind the wheel again!
