St Eunan’s College in Letterkenny has responded to the disappointing news that their school has been overlooked as part of a multi billion euro government school investment programme. The school, with over 1,000 students and a growing waiting list, has been calling for an extension to the school for decades. “The need has not diminished nor demographics changed – we are catering for Letterkenny and a wide surrounding area with continued pressure of an increasing enrolment.”The Letterkenny school said they deserve better than “temporary” solutions that have lasted for generations. However, the state’s reciprocal commitment—the basic provision of a fit-for-purpose environment—has been absent for nearly thirty years.”Since 1997, through the tenure of three different principals, St Eunan’s College have campaigned for an extension/refurbishment. They have called on the local community to support them in their campaign by contacting their local and national representatives.
