    Mark Nicholson & Max McFarland in Lesotho.

The Clongownian 2011 has been published - in full colour.

Edited by Declan O’Keeffe, the current issue features an in-depth interview with Fr Provincial (and Old Clongownian) Tom Layden SJ.

There is also an article by Fr Bruce Bradley SJ, now editor of Studies, covering one of the most significant events in the history of the school – the amalgamation with Tullabeg 125 years ago – as well as a piece by Fr Conor Harper SJ marking the 150th anniversary of the birth of Fr John Sullivan SJ, ‘Servant of God’.

Declan says that “a cursory glance through its pages reveals that 2011 was a big year for rugby, but Clongowes is about much more than sport and The Clongownian 2011 reflects the breadth of activity in the school throughout the year, be it academic, cultural, pastoral, religious or sporting.” 

A limited number of copies of The Clongownian 2011 are available at €30 each. Please contact the editor by email at dokeeffe@clongowes.net or by writing to him care of the school.  There are also a limited number of back issues for previous years (most years) and these are available for €20 each with funds thus raised going to the Alberto Hurtado Scholarship Fund.
