From the Fingal Independent - The Department of Education and Science last week approved major funding for a new 1,000pupil school building and special needs unit at Donabate Community College.
Following departmental sanctioning, construction work is set to begin in the spring, with the school community expected to take up residence in the building in time for the beginning of the 2011 school year. The department's building unit has since instructed the County Dublin VEC to issue contracts with a contractor and planning permission is expected to be lodged in the coming weeks.

A Public meeting giving information of the permanent build of the Secondary school was held in the Community Centre on Monday 19th October 2009.
Originally the permanent build was to have been delivered to this community in September 2009. This was rescheduled to September 2010.
In an address to the public meeting I raised 2 concerns
1. Why have we missed the deadlines of September 2010?
2. Is the project going to be threatened by Capital expenditure cut backs in the forth coming budget?
