Clonkeen College board 'kept in dark' about Christian Bros plan to sell land for €18m, High Court told
The board of management of a South Dublin secondary
school were "kept in the dark" about plans by the Christian Brothers
to sell part of its playing grounds to builders for €18m, the High Court has
heard. Clonkeen College board of management at Deansgrange Co Dublin have
brought proceedings against the congregation of Christian Brothers, which set
up the school and are its patrons, aimed at retaining the playing fields for as
long as the school remains in operation. The congregation has opposed the
action, and denies the board's claims the proposed sale to a developer will
adversely affect the 520-pupil school. Opening the case today, James Dwyer SC
for the board said the case was "rather controversial" and had been brought
so the playing fields would remain available for the school and its students.
