Minister for Education Norma Foley visits Roscommon

Delighted to welcome Minister for Education Norma Foley to #Roscommon schools & the west this morning. The minister is visiting schools who have recently received state investment. The future is in safe hands with the impressive teaching community and students I met today.
I really enjoyed visiting the technology and woodwork classrooms, the students have access to state of the art equipment and resources which give them a wonderful introduction to both industries.
Thank you CBS Roscommon & Convent of Mercy for the warm welcome.
At CBS Principal Kevin Scollan facilitated a tour of the school and showed Minister Foley of the Edmund Rice ASD Centre. Minister Foley held high praise and recognition for the work done in our ASD Centre by both staff and students to provide inclusive education.
The Minister also stopped to speak with 5th year student Craig Counihan who represented the ASD Centre and is also a member of the Student Council.
