Feelgood factor at a high as new Irish language school opens Children
attending a Naiscoil in Glengormley can now continue their education in the
Irish medium sector with the opening of St Enda's Gaelscoil. With 13 pupils
currently in primary one, it is hoped the Hightown Road school will
accumulate 105 pupils over the next seven years to meet government targets.
Secretary of the school's board of governors Dara MacCoille, said to date
there has been a high demand for Irish medium education in the area and
interest in the nursery has increased since the primary school opened in
September.
