New dance college is a big step for Foley

Mr Foley has been teaching the diploma in dance at Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa for 20 years and says leaving is a wrench. “It’s given me so much, and I have such happy memories. But I always wanted to spread my wings, be master of my own destiny. The Cork City Ballet College of Dance will be the realisation of a dream.”

Jane Kellaghan will carry on his work at CSN. “She has been there almost as long as I have and was also a student, so that’s come full circle for her,” he says.
