Welcome

 

As the Principal of St Brigid’s Primary School, I extend to you a very warm welcome to our website.  Through this we aim to give you a flavour of some of the school events, visitors and experiences offered to our children.

St Brigid’s is a Catholic maintained, co-educational primary school, where the children are at the heart of every decision we make and everything we do. We value the great relationships that we have formed with our parents and acknowledge the dedicated work and commitment of the Staff, Governors and Parents Association.

We enjoy a warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and it is this distinctive ethos which enables the children to flourish and succeed giving them the skills, attitudes and desire to achieve their full potential. 

I hope that you find our website informative and interesting and gain some insight into how we fulfil our school motto: 'Learning and Growing Together'.  If you would like to see our school and experience our ethos I would be delighted to meet with you.

Thank you for visiting our website.

Kind regards

Dolores Miller

Principal

Sponge the Teacher!🪣 🧽 Our Primary Five pupils had a fabulous time at Sponge the Teacher today, and they didn’t hold back! The laughter, the splashes, and the soaking were all worth it because we raised an amazing amount for Trócaire.🤩 A massive thank you to our generous P5 pupils and their families for making this fundraiser such a success. Your kindness will go a long way in helping those in need. 💙 Well done, Primary Five👏🏼
🧁Primary 3 and LSC’s Bun Sale for Trócaire🧁 Today Primary Three and the LSC held a bun sale in aid of Trócaire. Some of the bakes were of Mary Berry standard 🍰 and the whole school were invited along to buy some of the delicious treats. An outstanding amount of money was raised thanks to all of the hard work put in by the two classes (as well as their families!) and the support of all of the other classes too. Well done everyone. What a fabulous day 👏🏻
🏊‍♀️ Congratulations to Amber and Eryn from P6! 🏊‍♀️ This weekend, these two talented swimmers competed at the Irish Minor Schools Swimming Competition held at the National Aquatic Centre in Dublin.

🌸 P3/4's Special Mother's Day Vases! 🌸 Our amazing P3/4 class have been busy creating beautiful, hand-made vases just in time for Mother's Day! Each vase is filled with love and care, just like the love our incredible mums give us every day. ❤️ "This vase of love, a gift so small, For the best Mum, who gives her all!" We know how special all our mummies are, and we hope these little gifts bring a big smile to their faces this Sunday. Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mums in our school community! 💐
