Thirty former classmates and teachers got together in the Dromhall Hotel for a special mass and lunch.
Earlier in the day the former classmates returned to their Alma Mater St Brigid’s where teacher Miriam Malone gave a guided tour of the school’s current set up.
A candle was lit to remember the 10 girls from that class who have since passed away.

Glenflesk GAA Healthy Club recently welcomed the Dillon Quirke Foundation to run a cardiac screening clinic for its young members.
A total of 45 club players aged 12 to 18 underwent vital heart checks designed to promote early detection and heart health awareness among young athletes.
Medical personnel from Advanced Medical Services conducted the screenings with professionalism and care, while the club’s Healthy Club Team oversaw the smooth operation of the event.
