A book that will feature reflections on school life from former students of Baile Bhuirne’s Coláiste Íosagáin is set to be released in September.

The book will feature different perspectives from past pupils of the now closed Irish language boarding school, which was originally opened in 1940 by the De La Salle Brothers as a preparatory college for those hoping to be teachers.
