About

Our Lady’s Girls National School provides a well‑ordered, safe and caring environment where pupils can learn and thrive. The school’s ethos centres on fostering a happy, secure atmosphere that encourages each child to realise their full potential academically and personally. A balanced curriculum prepares students for the transition to second‑level education while also developing all aspects of their personality, promoting both intellectual growth and character formation. As a Catholic school, religious education is delivered in line with the doctrines, practices and traditions of the Roman Catholic Church, supporting the spiritual development of the pupils. The school places a strong emphasis on partnership with parents, encouraging them to act as active collaborators in the community. Mutual trust, respect and a sense of belonging are nurtured among management, staff, parents and pupils alike. Key features of the school include a dedicated garden space, a focus on wellbeing, a varied programme of physical education and active‑school initiatives, and a range of extracurricular activities that enrich the pupil experience. The school also promotes strong partnerships with local organisations and offers a clear uniform code and well‑structured admissions procedures.
