McAleese invokes learning values of Glenstal

PRESIDENT Mary McAleese did what she does so masterfully again yesterday on a visit to the all-boy Benedictine boarding school, Glenstal Abbey in Co Limerick.

Her canvass of words swept from the profound to the witty, connecting with spellbinding effect.

Learning, she told the 215 young students, was like engraving on stone.
