Is there any truth in the rumour that a certain 2nd level school/college about 10 miles outside the city thrashed the Woodlands Hotel on their Debs recently.If theres any truth in it theres seems to be massive damage done.True or False? and that the school/college management disowened the the students when approached.

What is going on in this thread?

The most vague thing I've read in yonks.

Breaking news "Man may have purchased jumper somewhere possibly shop"

kryogen · 20-09-2010 12:13am

somebody dish some details!!!

lassykk · 20-09-2010 8:13am

10 miles outside the city would rule out a lot

Ferrybank - too close
Tramore - possible
Kilmac - too far? Not sure but would say more than 10 miles

I know nothing about this but just guessing the distances

Ledger · 20-09-2010 9:31am

anyone with a credible source? no?

O Riain · 20-09-2010 9:41am

What a load shee-ite is right! You don't have to give us the who, just feckin tell us WHAT happened!

ziedth · 20-09-2010 9:54am

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to be a buzz kill and say don't say anything unless you can back it up with a link to a source.

If true no doubt someone from a local paper will run with it anyway.

There wasn't any incident or trouble at the DLS debs. There was triple the normal security as well as the principal and a number of teachers in attendance.

kryogen · 20-09-2010 10:27pm

thought the DLS debs was in the tower?

there was trouble at a debs in the woodlands a couple of weeks back, i know cause one of my mates was doing security at it. he said it was a pretty rough night with a couple of arrests

Talking to a somebody involved with the Woodlands earlier tonight.....

Apparently the thread title "bogs" could refer to a couple of rooms that had the toilets ,sinks and baths blocked with tissue paper ,then made to overflow and cause massive damage to the ceilings below.

From what I was told it was NOT De La Salle.....but a school from another town about a 10 to 13.8 mile radius of Waterford City centre........

DLS always have among the best behaved Debs (and the OP suggested that the school was 10km outside the city). The teachers get a table, which helps keep things under control.

The teachers having a table has nothing to do with it staying under control as they're tucked away in the corner where hardly anyone can see them. The reason why there's no trouble is because they're not granted a bar extension and everyone (bar the one or two people who may have booked a room) are out of the venue by 1am.

I think having a bar extension at a Debs is typically a bad idea. While the venue will always want to make money on the night, they have to seriously consider the risk vs reward of allowing teenagers who don't have an idea of how to pace themselves or handle their drink an extra 90 minutes to attack the bars!

I can safely say that there wasnt triple the normal security there was about 3 or 4 on security and that was it. The teachers always go so thats nothing new, theres never trouble at dls debs except for a few years ago but thats an exception to the rule

I remember most of us were 17 with a few guys 18 as they were already 5 when they started school. I'd imagine transition year means most are 18 by debs time now. Depends on the school though if they have 4th year or not.

Your right the teachers having a table doesnt have anything to do with it its the fact that its a good bunch of students does though. The teachers were not tucked away in a corner they were sitting beside the bar chatting to everyone and enjoying themselves they werent there for crowd control.

You are completly off the ball all together with not being granted a bar extension the principle organised it and didnt want one so we didnt get it. We were offered a free bar extension in the woodlands and a free drinks reception so its not like dls is barred from bar extensions it was just the principles wish.

Seriously try and get your facts straight before spouting aload of deflamatory bull

Having attended De La Salle, and my subsequent debs there, I'm gonna agree with AdMMM. We only had around 4 or 5 teachers show up at our debs in the Tower Hotel and they left around half 9 so no, the teachers don't ALWAYS go. The bar was closed at 11:30 and we were told to leave at 12. The music was a ****e cover band who played Saved By The Bell 6 times. Security consisted of one bouncer on each door and then two keeping an eye outside. Even with all the it was still getting rough and they were people being thrown out every few mins. I hate to see what would have happened with as bar extension. After the Woodlands debacle a few years back with the De La Salle debs it was organised for the Tower Hotel. I had more fun at the Mercy debs.
