Ireland's network of Dominican Schools and Colleges has a long history of education. Christian principles have been transmitted in novel ways to every generation that has come after. At the start of a new millennium, with its sophisticated technology and innovative ways to disseminate information, they see how these tools might help them carry on creating a community oriented around Christ. Dominican College is a voluntary grammar school that is coeducational and Catholic. The Dominican Sisters established it as a school for girls in 1917 after purchasing the breathtaking property that was once known as "O'Hara's Castle." The school started as a coeducational institution in 1968 and has progressively increased to accommodate more than 660 students. Over the next few years, it is anticipated that the student body will reach 675.
