Knocklong National School

About

Knocklong National School is a small, rural primary school situated in the village of Knocklong, County Limerick. The school prides itself on a caring and inclusive community where every pupil is known individually, valued, and supported to reach their full potential. A well‑rounded curriculum is delivered within a nurturing environment that places strong emphasis on pastoral care, pupil wellbeing and holistic learning. The ethos promotes unity and collaboration, reflected in the Irish maxim “Ní neart go cur le chéile” – there is no strength without togetherness. The school offers a broad range of activities that extend learning beyond the classroom, including musical, sporting, cultural and faith‑based programmes. These enrich the pupils’ experience and foster a sense of belonging within the wider local community. In addition to the primary provision, the school runs a pre‑school (Súgradh) programme, supporting early childhood development. Regularly updated school calendars and communication channels keep families informed of important dates, such as scheduled closures and events.
