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

💨⚡️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!
Meet our Athletes - part 2 Next up in our “Meet the Athletes” series is the amazing Lisa! A huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far — your generosity means so much to us! If you haven’t had a chance yet, please consider supporting Lisa and the team by donating or sharing our GoFundMe page. Every pound makes a difference to our school and the vital work of NI Children’s Hospice. Let’s cheer Lisa on! https://gofund.me/239f3fdd8 #StBrigidsPS #BelfastMarathonRelay #MeetTheAthletes #SchoolCommunity
🏐 Cumann na mBunscol Indoor Football County Finals 🏐 Our boys football team represented the school superbly today at the Cumann na mBunscol indoor football county finals in Burren. The boys faced tough opposition from schools all over the county, with an excellent standard of skill, teamwork and football on display throughout the day. They played with great determination, sportsmanship and pride, doing themselves and the school proud. 👏 Congratulations to St Bronagh’s, Rostrevor, who were the overall winners today. Well done to all involved on a fantastic day of football!
