(1) Brothers Aaron, Finn and Ryan Freeman-Hay den set off for St. Colman’s School in Ballindaggin full of excitement and nerves last week where they were welcomed by principal Frank Murphy and teacher Ms. Wickham.
(2) The brothers are no strangers to the limelight having made a very dramatic entrance into the world in December 2010 when their heavily pregnant snow-bound mum Mandy had to be rescued by a 4x4 jeep ambulance.
(3) Mandy was facing a scary home birth alone at the time because the treacherous and icy weather made them almost impossible to reach.
(4) Even an airlift from a Waterford-based air ambulance was ruled out, when sub zero conditions grounded the chopper, and two jeep ambulances, along with two ordinary ambulances were dispatched to aid the terrified mum-to-be.
(5) At the time Mandy said she was "absolutely petrified. I thought there’s no way I can have triplets here at home. John was talking to them on the phone and they told him to get towels and hot water ready as a last resort”.
(6) The triplets weren’t due until the end of January but doctors at Holies Street had arranged for her to have a scheduled section on December 15 when she would have been 34 weeks. However the three boys were far more impatient and eager to meet their parents arriving when Mandy was 32 weeks pregnant.
(7) Fortunately the triplets were born healthy. Aaron arrived first weighing at 4.4 lbs, followed by Finn at 4.1 lbs and finally the third baby Ryan at 8.57 a.m. at 3.55 lbs. They continued to thrive after their dramatic start to life and have been a great joy to the family.
(8) Mandy, who is originally from Dublin, lives in Mountain View, Ballindaggin with the triplets and their 13-year-old daughter Ghloe. Mandy said the boys were very excited about starting school and had settled in fantastically. "They are as happy as Larry there. It’s great. There’s not a bother on them."
(9) However it was no mean feat getting the three boys ready for school and Mandy said she had to get organised early in the summer. "It was a lot of work and money getting them ready because naturally there’s three of everything so there was a lot of work to it. But I started early in the summer so it wasn’t too bad."
How old are the triplets when they start schooling if this article is written in 2015?
