For seventeen years, the temporary location of St. Patrick’s National School in Celbridge has quietly grown into a community hub, now serving nearly 400 children. By all accounts, it is a good school, and a happy place. But a serious issue has been brewing over the years. Initially planned to be temporary, the school has far outstayed its time on a site that was only ever meant to be a short-term location.
The problem? There’s no safe route for children to get to school. Parents report a daily gauntlet—navigating narrow footpaths, dodging speeding cars, and crossing busy roads with limited visibility. This situation has led to numerous near misses, and even accidents.
And now, after years of inaction, a group of concerned parents is saying, ‘Enough.’ On September 13th, they plan to peacefully protest, demanding a simple solution: give our children a way to get to school without risk of injury, or worse.
This is a trailer for BLIND SPOT - an upcoming episode where I speak with the organisers of the upcoming peaceful protest.
