 St Fiacc's School First Communion Day 1965.
The photo was taken on Staunton Ave, between Timpsons and Brennans (it looks like). And it is St Fiacc's School First Communion Day. It has all the kids from Staunton Ave, St. Clare's Rd and maybe some from Pacelli Ave. I would imagine the picture was taken by either Jimmy Brennan or Noel Alcock.
