Michael Sheil OC’56 - Part 3 Portraits of Clongowes
-
- History
I thoroughly enjoyed my school days in CWC – however, it may come as a surprise to many to learn that, while in the Holiday Camp – I hated rugby [it was compulsory for all] and loved cricket and soccer!
I am often asked when did I decide to join the Jesuits …….. I could not name a particular date or an event – it simply seemed the most-natural-thing-to-do when I came to take that last journey down the main avenue – and out into the waiting world!
And so, on leaving Clongowes in 1956 – I joined another Family which took me to its heart – the “Js”.
