I have received a further update this week from KWETB in relation to the New Celbridge Community School accommodation for September.

The Students starting in September will be accommodated within the new school extension of North Kildare Educate Together. This is very welcome for the Students and their Parents. I’d like to thank all involved in making this happen, while they wait for their new temporary campus at Mooretown.

KWETB also reconfirmed to me that their plan is still to have the campus at Mooretown open by November/December 2015. This of course is subject to the planning permission been granted and there been no issues during the process.

I am committed and will continue to work with all stakeholders to ensure the flooding issue is resolved permanently so that the planning can be resubmitted as soon as possible for the new permanent school on the Hazelhatch Road site.
