A number of works have been proposed for a school located in South Kildare.

The Board of Management Scoil Bhride National School is seeking planning permission for works at the school, which is located in Athgarvan.

Specifically, the school is seeking 'the replacement of the existing timber post and rail boundary, fencing including replacement of existing gates and all associated siteworks, on the site boundaries and within the school site, with painted weldmesh type metal fencing and gates of varying heights.'

These proposed changes are as follows:

  • 1.2m high replacement fencing and gate (replacing existing timber fencing and steel gate) along part side/eastern boundary adjacent to the Curragh plains (Kilcullen side of school)
  • 2.4m high fencing (in place of existing timber fencing) to part side/eastern boundary adjacent to the Curragh plains to rear of school (Kilcullen side of school).
  • 2.4m high fencing (in place of existing timber fencing) and 2.4m high pedestrian gate to both rear southern and western boundaries adjacent to the Athgarvan GAA grounds and car park.
  • 2.4m high fencing (in place of existing weldmesh fencing) and gate to provide secure enclosure to existing school treatment plant and kiosk to rear of school
  • New 2.4m high gates and 2.4m high fencing and associated siteworks within the school grounds, to provide secure boundaries and secure play areas within the school grounds.
