The centre was established by the Dominican Sisters in 1976 and has developed
over the years to try to meet the perceived needs of the people who come here.
It is situated near Blackrock village, convenient to Dart (train) and bus
services, with very good off-street parking available beside the centre. Sr
Kathleen Moran is the Director.
Courses on offer cover a wide range of topics: religious, personal
development, languages, relaxation with art, music, yoga, circle dance, etc.
There are 3 terms in the year. All details are available at
