  • Community Audit of Santry, Dublin 9 in Respect of the Proposed
    Community Audit of Santry, Dublin 9 In respect of the proposed development at Swiss Cottage, Swords Road and Schoolhouse Lane, Santry, Dublin 9 Prepared by John Spain Associates On behalf of Cinamol Ltd. March 2020 39 Fitzwilliam Place Dublin 2, D02 ND61 Telephone: (01) 662 5803 E-mail [email protected] Santry Community and Local Needs Audit 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The purpose of this report is to provide an audit of the existing community facilities serving the Santry area. It provides information on the key population changes occurring in the catchment area and the potential demographic changes arising from the redevelopment opportunities within this area. The report contains an audit of the existing social infrastructure in the area relating to: ▪ open space and recreation; ▪ education; ▪ health and social services facilities; ▪ religious facilities; ▪ meeting and hall facilities; ▪ cultural facilities; ▪ retail provision. 1.2 These facilities are assessed to support the proposed development of the subject site for residential use. In particular this assessment will demonstrate that there is sufficient community provision within the catchment, therefore the redevelopment of the subject institutional lands will not result in a loss of community related activities. 1.3 This report has been prepared on behalf of the applicant who propose to develop lands in their ownership for a mixed use development, including 120 no. residential units and retail / café and restaurant units at ground floor level. 1.4 The purpose of the community audit is to determine the Santry area is well served by community related facilities to support the future residents of the proposed development.

  • 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.

  • Leinster Schools 1924
    Leinster Schools Athletics Champions 1924-2021 The origins of Leinster Inter-Schools Sports/Championships can be traced back to 1914 under the Dublin Schools League of the GAA. The Dublin Schools' League farmed out athletics events to be held with schools’ hurling/football championship finals. However, as GAA club names are given for winners it is not possible to identify schools. The Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) organised All-Ireland Schools’ Championships from 1916 and the GAA, All-Ireland Schools’ Championships from 1917. The IAAA did not organise Dublin The National Athletic and Cycling Association of Ireland (NACAI) was founded as the National Governing Body for athletics in July 1922 through the amalgamation of the IAAA and the Athletic Council of the GAA. The now titled “All-Ireland Schools and Colleges Championships” were inaugurated in 1923 under the NACAI. Dublin Inter-Schools’ Athletics Championships were revived in 1924 and organised by the Co Dublin Board of NACAI through to 1930. The Dublin Inter-Schools’ Athletic Union (DSAU), under the aegis of the NACAI, was founded at a meeting of representatives of schools and colleges in Jury’s Hotel on 18 October 1930 to take charge of the organisation of the (County) Dublin Schools and Colleges Athletic Championships. The first Hon. President was Mr Patrick Lynch, Attorney General, and the inaugural Chairman, Rev A. Murphy (Castleknock). From 1930 through 1936 the DSAU ran the Dublin Schools and Colleges Athletic Championships. At a meeting of the Dublin Schools’ Athletic Union in Jury’s Hotel on 3 March 1937 a motion to transform this Union into the Leinster Schools’ Athletic Union was passed unanimously.

  • Tailteann Schools
    Tailteann Schools Interprovincial Athletics Championships 1963–2020 Updated 6 February 2021 For corrections & additions please email [email protected] and [email protected] The Tailteann Schools Inter-Provincial Athletics Championships are the modern successor of the games which are part of the pre-Christian history of Ireland, predating the ancient Olympic Games, and now provide a keenly fought annual contest for schools’ Intermediate boys and girls (Under 17 on 1st September in the year of competition – a junior athlete may be selected for an event by a province) from Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster. These championships, referred to colloquially as the Tailteann Games, have themselves undergone an evolution to their current format since 1963. According to Lebor Gabála Érenn (The Book of Invasions), the Tailteann Games (Aonach Tailteann) were founded by Lugh Lámhfhada as a mourning ceremony for his mother Queen Tailte. Folklore dates the Games from 1600 BC, although other published sources claim they started as far back as 1829 BC. The ancient Aonach served three purposes – honouring the dead, proclaiming laws and providing sport and cultural festivities. They had a multi-sport format which included athletic events recognised today – running, high jump, long jump. The Games were held up until ca. 1170 AD, when they ceased due to the Norman invasion of Ireland. They were revived in medieval times as the Tailten Fair. In the modern era the first attempt to rekindle the Tailteann Games was mooted by the GAA shortly after its foundation in 188 4 with Michael Davitt championing the idea. The ill-fated American Invasion Tour of 1888 was intended to raise £5,000 for their revival but was a financial disaster – a loan of £450 was required to bring the touring party home.
