Young survivor of Parnell Square stabbing returns to school full-time
The young girl who was seriously injured in a stabbing incident on Parnell Square is now back attending school full time. The six-year-old was critically hurt outside a Gaelscoil on Dublin's Parnell Square in November 2023. Two other children and a carer, who also sustained injuries, received treatment in hospital before being released. On Thursday, an update on the girl's GoFundMe brought some good news from the girl's family, who confirmed that she is back in school. "For us who see our angel warrior every day, it is more difficult to notice advances and changes in her, but for those who see her less often, her progress is clear," the family shared. "She has been attending school full-time. She is not attending mainstream school, just to clarify. "The staff at this very special institution have gone above and beyond (in our eyes) to make our little girl feel part of the group, even after joining mid-school year. We are forever grateful to the love and dedication everyone has shown her. Her family also said she has been "attempting different sounds" and that her happiness is "infectious". They continued: "We have had some challenging days; we all go through them, even if we wouldn't like a six-year-old to have to. "As summer approaches, we are so happy to be able to spend it at home, hoping to spend days outdoors, smell the warm air, enjoy the sun and the sea." The young girl spent over a year undergoing intensive rehabilitation in Temple Street Children's Hospital after the incident. Her family have been keeping everyone updated on her recovery journey through GoFundMe. The online fundraising campaign, titled Barróg do Chailín Beag (A Hug For A Little Girl), has managed to raise nearly €133,000 so far.
