About

Geashill National School (Scoil Na Croise Naofa) is a vibrant primary school in County Offaly that delivers a balanced, child‑centred curriculum rooted in the Irish national framework. The school places a strong emphasis on holistic development, integrating academic learning with creative arts, technology, and environmental stewardship. Pupils engage in a wide range of activities such as robotics projects for 5th and 6th classes, music programmes that have undergone formal inspection, and participation in national quizzes and Green School initiatives, fostering confidence, teamwork and problem‑solving skills. The campus supports a variety of specialised facilities, including a purpose‑built robotics arena, music rooms, and resources for the school’s Green Flag and Active Flag programmes. A dedicated Green School Committee drives sustainability projects, such as measuring traffic speed to raise awareness of travel impacts. The school also offers inclusive education through its Cairdeas special classes for deaf/hard‑of‑hearing and ASD learners, ensuring that every child receives appropriate support within a nurturing community environment. Community involvement is a cornerstone of school life, with regular events like the annual Tractor Run, St Brigid celebrations, and student‑led fundraisers for local charities. Safeguarding and online safety are prioritised, reflected in comprehensive child‑safeguarding policies and participation in Safer Internet Day activities.
