Rosses scoolBREAKING NEWS: More than 400 students at a leading Donegal secondary school have been evacuated following a suspected chemical spill.

Students at Rosses Community School in Dungloe were preparing to sit their mock exams this morning when the alarm was raised.

Nobody has been injured during the incident during the spill of potassium and lithium.

It is understood the spill happened in the science laboratory of the school.

A number of fire crews are currently at the scene of the incident.

One student at the school said “We don’t really know what’s going on. We were just told we had to stay out of the school.

“There are fire brigades at the school but nobody really knows much else at the moment.”

Some buses have been arriving back at the school to take students home.
