Burke Building while making use of the science rooms downstairs. This building was recently acquired by Cork City Council from the Christian Brothers. The A.G or Gaelchol\u00e1iste Mhuire, the official name since 1998 moved to this modern school building on the site formally occupied by the original monastery or House at the top of Ard Mhuire\/Our Lady&#8217;s Mount in 2002. The school overlooks the city from the top of the avenue or the Lodge as it was known to generations of Mon boys. In 2001 the school went co-ed and took in two girls, \u00c9taoin N\u00ed hAilp\u00edn and Emma N\u00ed Laoire. <strong>In the current school year there are 535 attending the A.G.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Past pupils of the A.G. who went to school in the red brick will remember the iron stair case leading into the little hallway where Bran kept watch surrounded by photographs of successful Harty Cup teams. Mr Tony Duggan, former Deputy Principal recreated this feature in the new building as Bran is still a focal point of a montage of the 1911 pageant and the Harty teams.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;217&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_column_text]<span lang=\"EN-IE\" style=\"font-size: 13.5pt;\">Gaelchol\u00e1iste Mhuire has always had a wonderful atmosphere and this atmosphere remains intact.
