Barryroe Pre-school

Barryroe Pre‑school forms part of Barryroe National School, a rural, co‑educational institution situated in Barryroe, just five minutes from the village of Courtmacsherry and within easy walking distance of local beaches and community amenities. Established in 1972 through the amalgamation of three smaller schools, the campus now serves a close‑knit community of families and currently enrols 182 pupils. The school’s ethos centres on active learning and creativity, treating each child as an individual and placing them at the heart of the learning process. The pre‑school provision offers a welcoming, safe environment for early childhood care and education, designed to support the developmental needs of young children in the area. A range of school policies and curricular plans are openly available in the Downloads section and are reviewed regularly by staff and the Board of Management, ensuring that the programme remains up‑to‑date and responsive to families’ expectations. The facility aims to provide a nurturing setting where children can explore, play and begin their educational journey with confidence.
