Schools Building Projects
Seanad Éireann — 2022-07-12
============================================================

Sharon Keogan (IND), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I look forward to that review. There is a great deal of development taking place in the south of the county towards Grangerath and Mornington. There is a 1,000-pupil school being built there currently, but that will be filled with what is coming down the line due to population increases in that area. I am specifically seeking a secondary school for my area. The need and demand are there. I am not sure if it will be a 1,000-pupil school, but certainly 500 to 600 children could use the school. It is a 27-acre site and it could be a fabulous educational facility with all the auxiliary recreational supports for a good student life to be had on that site. I will keep the Minister of State to his word with regard to the review. I probably will be back here towards the end of the year asking again and I will look forward to a more favourable response.
