Condron is also accused of entering another school, St Brigid’s College, as a trespasser on the same date.

The three defendants were not present for the brief hearing at Derry Magistrate’s Court.

An investigating officer told the court that he believed he could connect all three defendants to the charges.

Defence solicitor Seamus Quigley said the charges would be contested.

The case was adjourned until January 20.
