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

🧑‍🔬Science Week 2025 👩‍🔬 Every class had the chance to dive into exciting science experiments and hands-on learning this week to celebrate science week! From building volcanoes to mixing colorful reactions, we all discovered how much fun practical science can be! 🌟 The benefits of experimenting firsthand were endless – problem-solving, creativity, and teamwork were all in action. Well done everyone 👏🏼
♻️Recycling Workshop with Noel Lyons♻️ Pupils from P1, P2, P6 and P7 took part in an excellent workshop on recycling this week. The children had a great time learning about the importance of recycling, the impact of landfill (and how it smelled!) and how small actions can make a big difference🌍 The younger children got creative by using recycled paper to make plant pots, while the older kids tested their knowledge with an interactive quiz. It was a fun and educational experience for everyone, and we all walked away with a greater understanding of how to care for our planet. 🌱♻️ A huge thank you to Noel for making this event so engaging and enjoyable!
