Three secondary schools across Co Donegal have become caught up in the coronavirus scare.
All three schools have recently returned from skiing trips to Italy where the virus is spreading.
Two of the schools have sent pupils home and asked them not to return to classes for a number of days.
However, a third school, Carndonagh Community School, has not sent pupils home.
A total of 72 pupils and teachers from the school returned from a trip to Northern Italy.
However, the school said they had liaised with the HSE and were satisfied with the precautions they had taken.
Vice-principal John McGuinness said they are advising students to self-isolate if displaying symptoms of the coronavirus as a precautionary measure.
All students who were on the trip were given the option of staying at home but none had taken up this offer.
The first school to advise pupils to stay at home was Loreto in Milford.
It informed 28 pupils who had traveled to Italy last week on a skiing holiday to stay at home.
Another school, Scoil Mhuire in Buncrana, had originally allowed pupils to return to school following a similar skiing trip.
However, all pupils who were on the trip were on Wednesday ordered home from school as a matter of precaution after their parents were telephoned.
