Dianiomaíocht i nGaillimh Thiar
Thu, May 28, 2026
Tabharfaidh muintir na Gaillimhe Thiar cuairt ar hallaí scoile agus ionaid phobail an dáilcheantair le vóta a chaitheamh aríst amárach. Go traidisiúnta, ní bhíonn sé éasca do pháirtithe rialtais fothoghchán a bhuachaint ach deir an t-aon phobalbhreith a tógadh go bhfuil an-seans ann go bhféadfadh Sean Kyne ó Fhine Gael an tseanriail sin a bhriseadh.
Ní chiallaíonn sé sin go bhfuil an scéal socraithe áfach. Ní bhíonn pobalbhreitheanna iomlán cruinn ariamh – agus is minic a bhíonn na cinn áitiúla go hiomlán as riocht.
Bhí cuid mhór daoine ag ceapadh go mbeadh Noel Thomas ó Éire Neamhspleách níos láidre sa bpobalbhreith seo freisin agus eisean atá fós mar rogha na ngeallghlacadóirí.

Reunion of the Bish classes of 1965 and 1966
Two hundred years ago, in October 1826, the Warden of Galway wrote to the Superior of the Patrician Brothers asking him to send at least one Brother to Galway to take over a school which had been moved from near the Shambles Barracks to a disused barrack in Lombard Street. Brother Paul O’Connor and Brother Dawson were sent to Galway. Cash in hand was one shilling. Social conditions were very bad, but the Brothers went ahead and established the Monastery School, known as The Mon. Before the school had been a year in operation, the improvement in the youth of the city was so evident that a public meeting was held in the school to vote thanks to the teachers, “whose zeal, attention and excellent arrangements had produced such happy results”. ...
