History of Ashton School\, Rochelle
School\, Cork Grammar School and Cork High School
\n
A History of Ashton School (St Leger\, 2016)\, an impres
sive hardback publication co
mpiled over decades\, is the work of author Dr Alicia St Leger. Alicia is
a past-pupil who began her second-level education in Rochelle School. There was no limit to her dedi
cation to accurately record the history of the school and the other school
s which came together when Ashton was formed – Rochelle School and Cork Gr
ammar School. Alicia is always careful to point out that Cork Grammar Scho
ol was also an amalgamation of two schools when it joined with Cork High S
chool.

\n
The book with its many illustrations (from the school
archive and beyond) makes very interesting reading for anyone with a conn
ection with the school.
