With Daragh Malone, of St Mochta’s National School in Clonsilla, Dublin 15.

Ailish Brennan, of St Mochta’s National School Build Action Group, writes:

Nine hundred and seven children attend school in St. Mochta’s National School in appalling conditions. The Government promised us a new school building in 2006. We are still waiting. The Government just announced grand plans for education. This is a joke to us. Children in our school have to use buckets to catch leaks on rainy days. Crowded, cramped, smelly, mouldy, fungus-ridden classrooms are the norm.

This is the face of Irish education in 2016. Four hundred and fifty children in delapidated overcrowded prefabs. Our children deserve better!

Our parents and children are marching to Dáil Éireann on Wednesday morning.

Fia is a female adult Boxer who was  last seen in Ballinascorney, Dublin 24 walking in the forest last night. A group of friends and family have been out searching all day with no luck. We’ll be back out again tomorrow but in the meantime we’re trying to share the word as much as possible. Fia is microchipped and she should have her lead and collar on. Any information please call 01-4994700 or email lost@dspca.ie Thank you.
