Thirteen proves lucky as long wait for school building ends
Their €500,000 national school will be officially opened today, Friday 13th, after a 13-year battle to replace their original building, which was condemned, many years ago, by the now defunct Southern Health Board.
The campaign for a new building for the children attending St James’s NS in Durrus started as far back as September 1995 when the school’s board of management first contacted the Department of Education.
