About

Guided by the motto *eolas is spraoi* (“knowledge and fun”), the school strives to create a secure, happy learning environment where pupils can develop socially, personally, spiritually and academically. The ethos places a strong emphasis on a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and encourages active parental involvement in school life. The school operates a structured day from 9:00 am, with junior and senior infants dismissed at 1:40 pm and older pupils at 2:40 pm. Breaks include a mid‑morning snack (11:00‑11:15) and a lunch period (12:30‑1:00).
