Confirmed here as St. Francis':

It was operated by the Presentation Sisters.  The following advertisement is from the Freeman's Journal of January 1902:

CASHEL INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL, CO. TIPPERARY
VACANCIES IN THE ST. FRANCIS INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL, CASHEL, FOR R.C. GIRLS.
The Manager is prepared to receive children from any county, provided they are duly committed.  If further particulars be required, apply to the PRESENTATION CONVENT, CASHEL.
