“St. Columb’s College is a Roman Catholic boys’ grammar school in Derry, Northern Ireland and, since 2008, a specialist school in Mathematics and Computing. It is named after Saint Columba, the Irish missionary monk who founded a monastery in the area. St Columb’s College was established in 1879 on Bishop Street (now the site of Lumen Christi College), but later moved to Buncrana Road in the suburbs of the city. The College has a student population of over 1,500, making it one of the largest Catholic Boys’ Schools in Europe. Colloquially, the school’s name is often shortened to “The College”.”
