Drogheda Institute of Further Education (DIFE) has had the good news that they have received €500,000 for a new five classroom extension.
Principal, Davy McDonnell, spoke of his delight in receiving this grant, "We put in place planning for a new five classroom extension for the college and thankfully we received planing permission from Drogheda Borough Council. We were delighted then to receive the great news that we were to receive €500,000 funding from the Department of Education for the extension." Principal McDonnell added that in the light of the financial restraints being suffered by the country he is all the more delighted with the funding. He expressed his hope that this extension will go a long way to having a self contained campus in DIFE in which all student activity will be on one campus. "We hope that the extension will be in place in 2010. The architects who did the work on the college have been working on designs and it will blend in with the rest of the college."
He lauded the work done on getting the funding by Louth VEC Education Officer and one time principal of DIFE Eugene Winters. Principal McDonnell also praised the dedicated staff and teachers of the college for their hard work and dedication. "We are all delighted with the funding and will continue to provide the best service at the college. It is great news also for the staff who were 100 percent behind the whole process".
