Carnane National School

About

Carnane National School, situated in Carnane, Fedamore, Co. Limerick, delivers a holistic primary education rooted in the Catholic tradition. The school’s ethos centres on the balanced development of each pupil’s academic, creative, emotional and physical wellbeing within a caring and safe environment. By embracing the Department of Education’s Primary School Curriculum alongside a broader, whole‑child approach, the school seeks to nurture curiosity and lifelong learning, guided by the vision “Education is a journey, not a race”. The school places a strong emphasis on sport and wellbeing. Pupils regularly engage in football and hurling sessions led by visiting instructors, and they benefit from weekly swimming lessons at the University of Limerick during one term each year. Opportunities for play, creativity and self‑confidence are woven throughout the day, supporting social interaction and personal growth. These programmes, together with a supportive community atmosphere, aim to equip children with the skills and confidence needed for future success.
