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

📚 World Book Day – ‘Read Your Way’📚 To celebrate this year’s World Book Day theme, ‘Read Your Way’,we encouraged our pupils to explore the joy of reading in a variety of fun and unusual places. The aim was to remind everyone that reading can happen anywhere and that every child can discover their own unique way to enjoy a book. Our pupils rose to the challenge with great enthusiasm, finding all sorts of creative spots to sit down with a good story — from cosy corners and outdoor spaces to some truly unexpected locations! Take a look at the wonderful and imaginative places where reading took place. It’s fantastic to see our pupils embracing books, sharing their love of stories, and showing that reading really can happen anytime, anywhere. 📖✨ #WorldBookDay #ReadYourWay

💨⚡️Extreme Weather Forest School 💨⚡️ P4 had an incredible day for our Extreme Weather Forest School Experience with Joan from Go Wild - Finnebrogue Woods! 🍃 Our explorers leaned into the four elements through hands-on adventure. The absolute "wow" moment? Watching Joan use nothing but a magnifying glass, flint and the sun to start a campfire! 😳☀️ It was pure outdoor magic and a lesson we won’t forget. A huge thanks to Joan for joining us on Wednesday!
