History of the school[edit]

It would appear that this article, which reads more like a prospectus or a piece of advertising copy, has been written someone in the PR department of the school. Much is made of the music department and we are treated to a list of all instruments which are taught. The article goes on to trumpet the sporting facilities, but the history of the school is accorded no more than a single line. To simply say that the school was "established at a place called Moira House" is unhelpful. Where was Moira House? And is it not possible to do better than "circa 1890" for the date of the move to its present location?

The information which has been presented could equally well be obtained from the school's official website.

Could we please be informed about the history?
