Monday, February 22 was a particularly joyful day in St Patrick’s NS, Drumshanbo, as the long awaited extension to the school finally opened its doors to welcome back the boys and girls of the Cairde and Laochra classes.
The extension is comprised of two classrooms for pupils with Autism, as well as all attendant facilities, including kitchen, sensory room and general purpose room.
The pupils and staff were thrilled today to be able to take up residence in their lovely new rooms.
As part of the build, outdoor play space has been greatly increased also. Because of the amazing response to the school’s recent fundraising campaign, the next part of the project - to improve the outdoor space and facilities - will now begin.
