Parents, staff, pupils and members of the wider Gaelscoil na gCeithre Máistrí community are holding a 48 hour campaign as part of a bigger protest to save their school.
After 24 years in prefabs and numerous delays, all stages had finally been approved and the new school building was ready to get underway in the coming weeks. There was a huge sense of relief and anticipation among the school community, especially considering that the prefabs after 24 years of constant use are in a state of deterioration.
At a protest in the school grounds on Friday morning, members of the Parents' Association told DonegalLive: "We are so angry that we have to come out and do this when the building is ready to go. It shouldn't have come to this.
"We have been quiet for far too long. Our children deserve better."
Parents who had been highlighting the campaign by tagging Education Minister Norma Foley's official social media Twitter account have reported being blocked, and comments disabled.
