NATIONAL (junior) SCHOOLS OF COUNTY DONEGAL

Below are some of the National Schools we have photographed. 

As is obvious from the photographs, some are still going strong, some are no longer in use and in various states of disrepair, and others are now used as houses or other buildings.  


NOTE: National Schools are for children of 4-12 (approximately).
