Wonderfully Successful Class Reunion 1976 – 1981 in Church and at Hotel

One of the three tutorial groups photographed with tutor, Matt Murphy (seated sixth from left) at the hugely successful Class Reunion 1976-1981 held in the Wallis Arms Hotel, Millstreet on Friday, 16th March.

The teachers present included Ken Brennan (Principal), Colman Culhane (Vice-Principal) and Tutors Margaret McCarthy, Pat O’Connor and Matt Murphy.   The splendid DJ for the occasion was 96FM’s P. J. Coogan.    The two main coordinators of the organising committee were Kathleen Hartigan and Noreen Meaney.   It was a truly superb occasion when so many great memories were recalled.    Here we share a selection of images which help to illustrate the splendidly uplifting atmosphere at the excellent meal and during the cheerful entertainment.   (S.R.)

  2. Sean, lovely to meet up last Friday, your photos are great we had a fantastic night one I will remember fondly. Even having lived in Cork longer that I lived in Millstreet, it will always be home, and I thank all my friends there that help me keep in contact with the area. I have some great memories of growing up there.

    All the best,

  4. Hi, would you kindly clarify this – are there two generations of Henry and John Leader of which the elder generation were the sons of John Leader and Alice who subsequently married George Chinnery?

    It is a little confusing.
