Moyne Community School in Co Longford is seeking permission to build an outdoor amphitheatre.
The school is hoping to develop an additional outdoor space with an amphitheatre and a biodiversity walkway as part of providing a suitable space for educational and recreational activities for two schools and the local community.
The development, if approved, will add to a 1.1km long Clár funded walkway that was installed last year around the school site as part of school enhancement works.
Principal Des Cullen says the patch of land near the road in front of the school had recently been cleared and was lying idle for the last few years until this idea emerged.
Longford County Council is due to make a decision on the plan by November 22nd.
