About

Scoil Éinde is a boys’ primary school situated in the heart of Salthill, opposite the well‑known Pearse Stadium. It caters for pupils from 2nd to 6th class, typically aged between 7 and 13 years. While the school’s ethos is rooted in the Catholic tradition, it welcomes children of all faiths and none, fostering an environment of respect for the individual. The school’s stated aim is for each boy to realise his full potential academically, socially, culturally and physically within a caring and supportive setting. The campus benefits from an extra‑large playground that provides ample space for outdoor play, and a newly refurbished P.E. hall that supports a broad range of physical activities. Set in a quiet residential area backing onto a neighbourhood park, the school enjoys a seaside location that enhances the learning environment. The emphasis on kindness, respect, responsibility, hard work and fun underpins the school’s vision and values, guiding a holistic educational approach that balances academic rigour with personal development.

History

The school opened in 1964 and is located in the seaside town of Salthill, in a quiet residential area backing onto a neighbourhood park.
