About

Claremorris National School operates across two distinct campuses in the town of Claremorris. The Convent Campus caters for junior infants through to fourth class, while the Kilcolman Campus accommodates fifth and sixth class pupils. Both sites provide purpose‑built classrooms and dedicated play areas, supporting a balanced programme of academic learning and physical development. The school places a strong emphasis on integrating technology into everyday teaching; a 2021 grant under the Irish National Recovery and Resilience Plan enabled the purchase of iPads, interactive whiteboards and a range of STEM equipment, helping to bridge the digital divide and enhance learning for pupils at risk of educational disadvantage. The ethos of the school is reflected in its commitment to holistic education, environmental stewardship and community involvement. It runs an after‑school club, participates in the Green Schools programme and offers a range of extracurricular activities, including an annual sports day. As a registered charity (No. 20206759), the school reinvests resources into pupil‑centred initiatives, ensuring that each child benefits from a supportive, inclusive and forward‑looking learning environment.
