An outbreak of Covid-19 has forced the closure of a school in Carrick-on-Suir.
Parents of pupils at the Presentation Convent Primary School were informed this morning that classes would be suspended with immediate effect.
Public health specialists are to carry out a full risk assessment of the school, which caters for 300 students.
An update on classes is expected to be given to parents later this evening.
The HSE/South East Community Healthcare has said it “does not comment on individual situations, in the interests of confidentiality for individuals concerned.”
