A long-time key member of St Columb’s Cathedral, Irene began teaching Sunday School 35 years ago, and for the past 20 years has been the Superintendent.

Under her careful guidance the Sunday School has gone from strength to strength, and can boast climbing numbers of children who enjoy a wide and varied programme of activities throughout the calendar year, including trips, activities and visits.
