CHILDREN being taught in a warehouse with no windows and no playground are getting used to broken promises.

No windows as children go to school in warehouse

Gaelscoil Charman in Wexford, which has 200 pupils on its rolls, was promised a new building in the run-up to the last general election. Principal Aine Uí Ghionáin and parents at the all-Irish primary school, were told by then Education Minister Michael Woods that a new school building would be delivered this year.

Instead the school now operates out of a warehouse in Wexford Industrial Estate. The children have no playground and they are taught in makeshift classrooms with no windows and no natural light.
