"Despite the best efforts of our Maintenance team today, the school campus is currently unsafe for the return of students and staff," a Kilkenny College spokesperson said.

"Therefore, the school will remain closed to all students and staff tomorrow Tuesday, January 7 and therefore there will be no return of boarders or staff this evening (Monday)," the statement added.
