  • A Seed Is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA from the Earliest Times, The
    A Seed is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA From the earliest times, the people of Ireland, as of other countries throughout the known world, played ball games'. Games played with a ball and stick can be traced back to pre-Christian times in Greece, Egypt and other countries. In Irish legend, there is a reference to a hurling game as early as the second century B.C., while the Brehon laws of the preChristian era contained a number of provisions relating to hurling. In the Tales of the Red Branch, which cover the period around the time of the birth of Christ, one of the best-known stories is that of the young Setanta, who on his way from his home in Cooley in County Louth to the palace of his uncle, King Conor Mac Nessa, at Eamhain Macha in Armagh, practised with a bronze hurley and a silver ball. On arrival at the palace, he joined the one hundred and fifty boys of noble blood who were being trained there and outhurled them all single-handed. He got his name, Cuchulainn, when he killed the great hound of Culann, which guarded the palace, by driving his hurling ball through the hound's open mouth. From the time of Cuchulainn right up to the end of the eighteenth century hurling flourished throughout the country in spite of attempts made through the Statutes of Kilkenny (1367), the Statute of Galway (1527) and the Sunday Observance Act (1695) to suppress it. Particularly in Munster and some counties of Leinster, it remained strong in the first half of the nineteenth century.

  • Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015
    Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015 In February 1916 Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) circularised the principal schools in Ireland regarding the advisability of holding Schoolboys’ Championships. At the IAAA’s Annual General Meeting held on Monday 3rd April, 1916 in Wynne’s Hotel, Dublin, the Hon. Secretary, H.M. Finlay, referred to the falling off in the number of affiliated clubs due to the number of athletes serving in World War I and the need for efforts to keep the sport alive. Based on responses received from schools, the suggestion to hold Irish Schoolboys’ Championships in May was favourably considered by the AGM and the Race Committee of the IAAA was empowered to implement this project. Within a week a provisional programme for the inaugural athletics meeting to be held at Lansdowne Road on Saturday 20th May, 1916 had been published in newspapers, with 7 events and a relay for Senior and 4 events and a relay for Junior Boys. However, the championships were postponed "due to the rebellion" and were rescheduled to Saturday 23rd September, 1916, at Lansdowne Road. In order not to disappoint pupils who were eligible for the championships on the original date of the meeting, the Race Committee of the IAAA decided that “a bona fide schoolboy is one who has attended at least two classes daily at a recognised primary or secondary school for three months previous to 20 th May, except in case of sickness, and who was not attending any office or business”. The inaugural championships took place in ‘quite fine’ weather.

  • Religion in the Public Education System of Bulgaria
    RELIGION IN PUBLIC EDUCATION IN IRELAND1 PAUL COLTON2 Introduction The Irish education system is a crucible for social and political comment as well as controversy.3 The role of religion and religious groups in education is a dominant theme of that debate, as is the challenge of according each citizen rights afforded by Articles 42 and 44 of Bunreacht na hÉireann.4 This has been referred to as ‗a dormant crisis in waiting.‘5 The religious institutions are wrestling with the issues also.6 Religion and Education: A Cauldron of Debate The contemporary reality is remote from the vision put forward by Lord Stanley in 1831. He envisaged a system of national education in Ireland, which endeavoured ‗…to unite in one system children of different creeds.‘7 Today, the established educational framework is predominantly denominational in character. At the same time there are new religious groups (not exclusively Christian) either seeking their own schools or more multi-denominational schools. There is also a small, but vocal, group calling for a universal secular system of education.8 Others seek diversification of the numbers of patrons (religious and non-religious) 1 This paper will deal solely with the Republic of Ireland. The paper follows the Grille Thématique of the Consortium including the request to deal only with education prior to third level. For detailed reading on the subject of the law, children, education and religion in Ireland see J. Coolahan, Irish Education: History and Structure (1981, Institute of Public Administration, Dublin); D. Glendenning, Religion, Education and the Law (2008, Tottel, Dublin) Ch.9; D.

  • LIVES of the PRESIDENTS Sir Joseph Michael Redmond
    LIVES OF THE PRESIDENTS Sir Joseph Michael Redmond Born: c.1856 President: 1906 – 1908 Died: 1921 Joseph Redmond, an esteemed citizen of Dublin who was ’very popular amongst the members of his profession’1, was born circa 1856. The son of Denis Redmond of Ranelagh, Dublin, his early schooling was at the College of St. Francis Xavier, now Belvedere College, and afterwards at the Catholic University of Ireland. This institution had no power to award degrees until 1880 when the recognised Royal University of Ireland came into being and Catholic University students were then entitled to sit for its exams. So, it was not until 1915 that Joseph Redmond received his MD as an honorary degree awarded by the National University of Ireland. He also studied at the Hospital for Diseases of the Throat and the Chest, London and in 1876 he obtained the Diploma of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. In 1878 he became a Licentiate of the College of Physicians, and he was elected a Fellow six years later and was President between 1906 and 1908. An active member of the Dublin medical community, he was appointed Demonstrator of Anatomy in the Catholic University Medical School in 1877. Four years later, he was made Senior Physician at the Mater Misericordiae Hospital. He was Consulting Physician to the National Maternity and Coombe Hospitals as well as to St. Michael’s in Kingstown and the Cottage Hospital, Drogheda. He was a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Medicine reading many papers there and was a President of the Section of State Medicine (now Public Health Medicine).

  • The Gonzaga Record 1985
    THE GONZAGA RECORD 1985 T h e G o n z a g a R e c o r d THE GONZAGA RECORD 1985 ^ <r Editor William Lee SJ. Gonzaga College Dublin SPONSORS We wish to thank the following for their support: The Bank of Ireland, Wilson and Hartnell, Appleby, Jewellers, The Irish Intercontinental Bank, The Allied Irish Banks, Robinson, Keefe and Devane. © G onzaga College, 1985 Designed and produced by Publications Management; Cover design by Jacques Teljeur. Typeset and printed by Brunswick Press Limited, Dublin. PREFACE I welcome this first issue of The Gonzaga Record and I congratulate Fr Lee and his associates on its production. A school annual serves many purposes: it constitutes an important record of a school’s development over many generations: it strengthens, over time, a school’s sense of identity; and it links the present pupils with those who have long since left. This, the first edition, is rightly strong on history, and though in the future the emphasis will undoubtedly shift from the past to the present, and deal equally with the large contribution made by the lay masters, this issue will certainly be seen as an important document on the origins and development of the ideals which have shaped Gonzaga. Noel Barber sj Headmaster EDITORIAL Perhaps The Gonzaga Record should have come into existence years ago. On the other hand, there is something to be said for waiting until an institution such as a school has settled down properly. For one thing, until comparatively recent years Gonzaga College was a very small school.
