Good to see that at last the VEC are supporting classes in Monasterevin. There are a number of classes including, Child Care, English, Aromatherapy and Photography. In particular the Photography class filled up in a very short time, in fact there were far more requiring a place than places available. The class is being taught by well known Photographer Edward Frances Browne, (see the article about him in this weeks Leader). The course runs for 10 weeks at the end of which the group hopes to have fine tuned their skills. Maybe some of the group might volunteer photographs for viewing on the webite.
