Drumnigh Montessori Primary School

Drumnigh Montessori Primary School is a long‑standing, private, non‑denominational institution situated in the heart of Raheny. Founded in 1962, the school provides a continuous educational pathway from early childhood care and education (ECCE) through to sixth class. The environment is deliberately nurturing, with an emphasis on order, peace and respect, allowing children to develop concentration, initiative and a lifelong love of learning. The school follows the Montessori approach, offering specially designed materials that encourage independent, self‑directed learning across all age groups. Facilities cater for babies, toddlers and preschool‑aged children, with dedicated toddler groups and a healthy eating policy that promotes balanced nutrition. Regular parent‑directress meetings, parent‑working mornings, school trips, a Christmas show and an annual sports day foster strong community involvement and provide families with insight into the Montessori classroom.
