Sod turned for Ashton’s new school

The Minister for Education and Skills, Mr. Ruairi Quinn sanctioned the building project early in 2012, with work starting on the resumption of school term, after the Easter holidays. Patron of the School, Bishop Paul Colton, Chairman of the Board of Management, Mr. John Deane, both supported Principal Mr. Landen when he stated it was ‘an exciting time for the school-students, staff and parents at Ashton’. This new facility will provide ongoing continuity for generations of Ashton students into the future.
