Sobre IBD

Inishmore House stands majestically in the townland of Whitehall overlooking Upper Churchtown Road and has done so since 1840. It has been home to some notable families but in 1952 its status changed when a directive from Archbishop John Charles McQuaid to the De La Salle Brothers asking them to establish an educational facility for boys saw the house transformed into a school. Beginning life as both a primary and a secondary school the Prep became a stand alone primary school in 1957 when the College opened its doors at Landscape. Seeing many changes and several incarnations, each of the eight thousand boys who attended classes there have memories of their time at Inishmore. From Drill classes in the yard with Captain O’ Neill to Wicklow treks with Brother Maurice. Angelus prayers with Mrs. McCullagh, after swimming chips with Miss Ryan, rugby training with Brother Damian, elocution lessons with Mrs. Herlihy or simply chatting to the man who was Brother Patrick McCann, the recollections are many. The school bell is now silent and the chalk has been packed away but the sounds of the boys playing marbles under the big oak tree, playing football in the yard or running to take shelter from the rain in the long shed will forever be etched around Churchtown.
