St Mary’s College have released new aerial photographs of the progress of the construction of their new school, which will open next year.

With accommodation for up to 900 pupils, the new St Mary’s College post-primary school will have 29 specialist classrooms for subjects including technology, construction studies, art, home economics and design and communication graphics, while there will also be guidance and learning support suites.

There will also be a library, purpose-built science laboratories, a music/drama room with staging area, over 20 general classrooms, computer suites and a physical education hall with changing and fitness suites. The plans also include a general purpose hall as well as catering, staff offices and other ancillary space.

External works will provide five ball courts, GAA playing and training pitches, covered bicycle racks, landscaping and 65 car parking spaces.

Last month the old handball alleys were demolished.

The photographs were taken by Pak Aerial Media.
