About

St. Caillín’s National School is a mixed primary school situated in the village of Fenagh, County Leitrim. It caters for Junior and Senior Infants, providing a foundation curriculum that balances literacy, numeracy and creative subjects. The school places a strong emphasis on experiential learning, organising regular field trips such as visits with a botanist and participation in STEM fairs, which allow pupils to develop investigative skills and a love of science.
