‘Our school has lost two very beautiful students’

THIS morning Dermot Flood will not make his usual school run to nearby St Aidan’s where he was a pupil himself three decades ago.

Nor will his wife Lorraine arrive after 2pm to fulfil her routine of collecting the couple’s two “beautiful and bubbly” children.

Instead psychologists and counsellors have been organised to help the classmates of Mark Flood, 6, and Julie Flood, 5, cope with the death of their school friends.
