Hundreds of Irish teenagers are on the Greek island of Ios on a holiday intended to mark the end of their Leaving Certificate exams.
Following the tragic deaths at the weekend of Andrew O’Donnell and Max Wall, both 18 and students of St Michael’s College in Dublin, the mood on the party island is sombre, with many students trying to come home early.
Gardaí have been dispatched to Ios to aid in the investigations into the deaths.
