Principal bans popular ‘IRA game’
The game has been played at primary schools in Kilkenny city and involves sixth class boys dividing into two teams. Each team picks a word, with each boy taking one letter of the word. Teams then chase one another and when someone is caught, the aim is to get him to reveal his letter.
Liam Moloney of St Canice’s Boys National School on Grange Road, who banned the game in his school, fears it could lead to bullying.
